When I take the bearings out, what am I looking for? Broken bits or wear and tear? Probably a silly question but I'm curious.
First you want determine where the metal shavings came from, and that should be pretty easy once you have opened up the engine. You really should not have run it again once you found metal in the top of the engine, that may have sent it to the graveyard. Hopefully the sleeve and piston are not badly scored from the debris running around in there and you only need a new set of bearings.
