crank rod bearings the this is normal? and on wear

Is this wear on the rod and crank bearings normal?
#9
@Jpbroad1970 The risk with an engine swap is that I may get one with the same problem and in the end will cost me more. What I would ideally consider is a replacement crank and bearings but I can't find any that are new. 

Honestly, I plan on keeping it for as long as it runs but I didn't think that time would come so fast. Apart from this, I really can't justify replacing it. Besides, with the depreciation, I may end up spending more on getting a newer but equivalent car in terms of trim level and even performance. 

I suppose I have to decide what is more convenient for me. I probably shouldn't slap the oil pan back on it and drive till it fails. 

The consensus is that I must do somethin' about it, right?
