don't know how far along you've made it with this repair, but my suggestion is too repair the obvious, mildly sand the crank journal w/ emory cloth ( if not badly scarred) re-assemble the rod cap using plasti-gage and check clearance, then replace rod bearings. check colors on all others. shouldn't cost more than $100 for bearings, an oil pan gasket $17 and an oil pump pick-up tube gasket $ 3.00 from the dealer. re-torque to factory specs, but if you have heavy mods done to engine a lil' insurance would be to install ARP rod bolts and a new Oil pump.Good luck.
