I wonder why we have nothing more (or at any rate, nothing I've seen) on the BCCI connections.

Dunno. It's strange.
Kerry was co-chair of the committee that investigated BCCI, and here's what his final report had to say, in the appendix "Matters For Further Investigation":
1. The extent of BCCI's involvement in Pakistan's nuclear program. As set forth in the chapter on BCCI in foreign countries, there is good reason to conclude that BCCI did finance Pakistan's nuclear program through the BCCI Foundation in Pakistan, as well as through BCCI-Canada in the Parvez case. However, details on BCCI's involvement remain unavailable. Further investigation is needed to understand the extent to which BCCI and Pakistan were able to evade U.S. and international nuclear non-proliferation regimes to acquire nuclear technologies.

IMO, a corollary of mutual interest between Saudi, Pak, USA and various Gulf States, is that under no event whatsoever, will this be allowed to lead into the BCCI scandal.
No one's hands are clean, BCCI corrupted and bribed too many senior officials across the American spectrum for any trail to be exposed.
