Crane pushrod quality

So I recently read a response in a different thread about Crane pushrod issues. I've installed an older NOS set (supposedly).
They are the black ones, ball/cup.
Fired up the Googlin' machine and found this, linked below.
Anyone else seen/heard this?

I broke a few right away.
My push rods were measured and custom made. Geometry was right. So I conversation with Crane.
Guy asks were they Black or Gray?
Oh damm we normally make them our selves, and ours are gray. We outsourced and those were all bad. Told me don't use any more black of the ones, they are bad.
And I could not get replacement push rods either as they also out sources the tips and were out off them too.
Thanks to cheap overseas crap.
Can't blame them, trying to compete price wise quality went down and so did the company.
