distance 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 [word] - standard ip access

I have :

lo7-SW3->EIGRP->R4->OSPF->R1

lo7 shows up in r4 table as eigrp external:

D EX 135.15.107.0 [170/261120] via 135.15.20.7, 04:47:15, FastEthernet0/0

I am redistributing this into ospf 1 and sending along to r1

Type-5 AS External Link States

Link ID ADV Router Age Seq# Checksum Tag
135.15.107.0 135.15.104.1 1314 0x80000002 0x009409 0

Furthermore this is advertised with AD of 171 not to overtake routes that
could potentially show up on neighbor with a 'distance 171 0.0.0.0
255.255.255.255 ospf-distance'

R4#sh ip access-lists ospf-distance
Standard IP access list ospf-distance
    10 permit 135.15.107.0
    20 permit 135.15.110.0
    30 permit 135.15.120.0

I am not seeing any hits on ACL nor am these routes on R1 with a distance
of 171:

O E2 135.15.107.0 [110/20] via 135.15.14.4, 00:00:17, Serial0/0/0.14

Here is relavant config on R4:

router ospf 1
 log-adjacency-changes
 area 10 virtual-link 135.15.101.1
 redistribute connected subnets route-map connected->ospf
 redistribute eigrp 30 subnets route-map eigrp->ospf
 network 135.15.10.4 0.0.0.0 area 0
 network 135.15.14.4 0.0.0.0 area 10
 network 135.15.34.4 0.0.0.0 area 10
 distance 171 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 ospf-distance

ip access-list standard ospf-distance
 permit 135.15.107.0
 permit 135.15.110.0
 permit 135.15.120.0

I thought this would redistribute eigrp learned route with metric of 171 to
neighbors. This isn't a big problem on R1 but it causes a recursive routing
problem on neighbor R5.... Am I not understanding how this command works?
