Even if the spray bar was blocked, bores are only splash lubricated anyway. Not all engine has under piston cooling jets.

That is a heat related seizure. Reason why is nobody knows.

Wossner recommend a 4thou clearance on their pistons. It could be that the tolerance was too tight and it just expanded and gripped on number 3 as that is the leanest pot.
