FWIW.... the testing by 540Rat puts the Brad Penn oils near to the bottom. (I know this may not suit everyone to mention that, but it is one test of wear protection.)
I wish I could blame the oil for this but I don’t believe it is. That seems like a fairly big failure for an engine with a few thousand miles on it. I don’t see oil quality doing that in such a short amount of time. I believe it is either oil pump failure or a machining defect. Possibly just a bad bearing out of the box and domino effect.
