Are you SURE it's a rod and not just a chunk of carbon broke loose in a cylinder combustion chamber? (they sound pretty much just alike,,,) I would get some combustion chamber cleaner like Seafoam DeepCreep or Amsoil Powerfoam and try it. Can't hurt at this point. Little Old Lady may have never driven it fast and it's all carboned up.
