Success!!!! I bought an oil pump priming tool and used a drill. Took about a minute and twenty seconds but oil is now flowing out of the rocker shaft just in time since my drill was starting to smoke too!

All kidding aside, you did the right thing by being careful.
Check that the timing marks on the dampener has not slipped on the rubber.

Strong work lol. I timed it using a stopwatch, one minute twenty seconds until I saw my first drips near the rear rocker stand. My electric drill started smoking bad so I switched over to my cordless until I confirmed oil made it all the way to the front of the assembly before I shut it off. Thanks for the suggestions! This is my first rebuild, so I was nervous to do everything! Especially without anyone else near me to help.

Thanks gents!
