That conrod in the top few pics will need replacing. The bearing has been spinning inside the rod and has damaged the rod.
Given that I would be tempted to get the rods balanced (the rod weights are equalised overall and end to end) before reassembly.
I'm also not sure that crankshaft will be reusable looking at the amount of damage.
I am looking on getting all of them replaced anyway...luckily
And the crankshaft..hoping it's not damaged enough...if that's the case...a good used one is possible to source and prices are reasonable... hopefully..
