Well, I finally got the case split today. It's for sure spun rod bearings. The mains and all the trans bearings are just fine, and the rods are barely damaged at all. I can't feel any of the grooves, but they look pretty bad, and the bearing for cylinder #1 is turned just a little bit in the rod and cap. I think I should be able to get away with just getting the crank polished. There is no scoring at all in it, just some light marks that are only visible, not able to be felt at all.

Here's some carnage pics!
