Thats your crank thrust bearing and pretty normal.
Everytime you step on the clutch you are pushing the crank , thats the wear bearing for it
or Thrust bearing .
I would say at the least, have an experienced person take a NEW main bearing and push it into place .
It should go in nice and snug, maybe nice and tight is the word.
If it falls in there or is a light fit you have line bore issues for sure.
Again I am not the last word on this.
Of course you can send it to the proper shop and have them measure it all up for ya.
Which ever makes you sleep better.
