Oil Flow Problem(2001 660R)

I have a 2001 660R and I changed the clutch out today. Just the friction and steels, that wasn't a big deal.

I destroyed the filter taking it off so I got a new one and put it on, a Yamaha OEM filter. Same part number that is on the one I took off. I filled the oil reservoir with oil, it took about 3/4 of 1 qt, clearly not the 1.95 qt needed at least.

I started the engine and checked the level again and it didn't change....not good

I loosened the Oil Gallery Bolt and started it again to see if it would weep oil out. Nothing....

I took the new filter off and it had no oil in it (I don't prefill my filters like some people do.)

Any idea on what the cause is?! any help would be awesome.

Thanks

If I remember correctly you fill the reservior tank, run the quad approx 30 seconds and then put the rest in..

I did that. No oil went in to the case.

I also checked the Oil Gallery screw and nothing on that either.
