Both the NLO MadGraph LHE output and default MadGraph 3.5.3 LHE output are formatted with the lhef3.0 formatting. A typical block looks like

i.e. a change from v2.0 is that there is a block of <mgrwt>.
<mgrwt>
This leads to issues with the current implementation of the LHE reader, as it expects everything before </event> to be part of the event.
</event>
Describe the solution you'd like
Make the LHEReader able to read v3.0 files.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Forcing the MadGraph to output in v2.0, but I think it's better to just add the functionality to read v3.0 in LDMX
