The big end bearing in the photo does need changing, but the mains in your photo should be okay. Usually the big ends go before the mains.
Thanks! If I start changing 'em, I'll change 'em all.
I know it'll be awkward but, to my mind, it beats having to tear down the engine bay. Anyhow, I think I'll change all the bearings and maybe the crankshaft as well. So engine out it is, I suppose.
