...a lot of the oil remained trapped
in the sump, so some splash lubrication and cooling would have
been present.

The sump in the 912 series engines in not the bottom of the crankcase;
it is a separate tank, so how could oil in the sump provide "splash
lubrication and cooling" ?

Because return of oil to the separate tank had failed (for whatever reason,
but probably because the return pipe under the 'sump' had coked-up due to
being too close to the exhaust). Blow-by pressure (and some of the oil) was
leaking past the pushrod tube seals (or thereabouts).
