Prime the engine with the valve covers off. Then you can see if you get oil to all rockers.

When I assembled my engine I primed it before I mounted it in the car. I had oil to all Dove rockers except one.

The oil grove in the center of the rocker was not aligned to the hole. Part of the grove was too shallow. It was easy to fix with a Dremel.
