Yeah sorry perhaps not explained correctly. The bpstart time out is 8 hours (28800)
The status 74 is what we would expect to see on the Master Server job view, and is actually what the CLIENT bpbkar log shows after 8 hours of the job hanging. However, the issue is the Master server is reporting Status 13 after 2 hours of inactivity, i.e whilst the bpstart job is running on the client and BEFORE the timeout is reached.
