Well, for those of you that said that it might be loose bolts between the flywheel and the torque converter, you were right. Wallowed out the holes in the flywheel so it had been loose for quite a while. Went ahead and checked the rod bearings and wrist pins and all looked real good.

Allen, you said that you would bet the farm that it was the #3 wrist pin. Thought I should have taken you up on that bet until you posted those pics. Hope you find more of your cattle and they are still breathing.

Thanks for your input. I knew that I could count on all of you for a good answer.
 
glad it was a simple repair even if you went through the trouble to check the bearings.You did put new ones in right? I have one of those cars 86 olds and the 2.5 has serviced me well 26 mpg and rides good commuter car. 2 days after I got it the head bolt broke and blew a head gasket that's how I found out it was a low mileage car. I asked the machine shop how many miles he thought the head had on it and he said the same thing I was thinking valves still sitting high in the seat not many odometer showed around 60,000. I have around 85-90,000 on it now and still going.
