Clockwise rotation of the drill?
How long did you spin it? It can take a while to prime. Clogged/missing/detached(vac leak) oil pick up. Bad pump. Clogged oil lines. No oil in pan.
Oil only gets to the top end through a drilled hole in the camshaft. Oil is directed up the copper tube when the camshaft rotates.
Without the engine turning over, you won't get oil up to the valve train unless the hole is aligned with the copper tube fitting.
The following illustration is from the FSM (factory service manual) and shows the old style oil filter, but the engine internals remain the same.
