I'm sure you know that oil pressure or lack there of will not cause overheating. Ditto on the cam seizing. Pretty rare. That would make me think that the cam isn't getting oil. Did you ever determine why the cam seized? Either coolant is low, water pump not pumping or thermostat. Running 10mins and overheating, sounds more like a stuck thermostat. You could run without a thermostat and see it the problem persists. Since you did the head, are the timing marks correct?
