The oil is very clean and some who know more than I do have said that it looks like break-in oil to them.
Did they taste the oil? I don't know of any way (especially by sight) of determining what kind of oil it is. Just saying.
On pushrod length, it looks like there are quite a few different lengths. Per the attached clip from the 1929-1957 parts catalog.
