No oil in the head
If its like a Raptor, it comes in through the Cam itself. Theres an oil feed line that comes intoone end of the cam and comes out of the cam through small holes in just thr right spots to lubricate the cam lobes, cam races etc. maybe you had some of the holes plugged with yamabond from the valve cover?? maybe there was air in the system and the oil was not pumping through the motor?? Just some thoughts.

No oil in the head
I'm not familiar with Warriors. Thats why I was saying if it's anything like the Raptor. I was looking at Albas microfishe and the cam is different than the Raptor but, the view of the oil pump shows a delivery pipe on the side of the engine. If you have a service manual it should show all the oil lines and the direction of flow etc. Sorry I can't help more.

No oil in the head
Not real familiar with the oiling system on a Warrior, but when I had mine it had an air bleed screw on the top right rear of the head that I loosened at every oil change. After filling with new oil I started the engine and waited for oil to come out around the threads and then tightned it.
The other thing that comes to mind is if it oils thru the cam then the cam bearings have to have a hole than lines up with the oil passage coming up thru the cylinder and head (like the cam bearings in a V8), if the bearings were replaced and not oriented correctly everthing would oil except the cam.
When you placed the cylinder back on you noticed the oil rings on the line up pins, right ? This is the pressure passage. The return oil from top falls down the cam chain opening.
