I have had only one broken pin in my life time of FORD Engines and it was in my Stock 351C ...the cause was a piece of Permatex Sealant must have been used on the oil pic up and jammed the oil pump ....twisted the drive like a pretzel.
They make double roll pins ... from mcmaster carr and HD oil pump drive should cure your problems.
