Who put the oil in it? You or the machine shop?
It shouldn't have taken more than 6-10 revolutions of the oil pump shaft to feel a lot of resistance and good pressure. It wouldn't be the first time someone lied to a customer about something they were supposed to do.
Either the pump shaft fell out of place and is in the oil pan or it broke. Can you see the end of the shaft? It should be visible down in the hole left when you pulled the distributor. If not, it's gone somewhere else to live.Whatever you do, don't start it again till you get pressure with the drill.
