Thank you Jeff,
I took the plunge and had the IMS replaced, along with a lot of other stuff that my mechanic found it needed to be replaced.
My car started miss firing and took it to Bay Area Motorworks in Cambell, the guys there found that the valve lifters (tappets) were making noise -at least on one bank, and I decided to have all of them replaced, along with the sparkplugs, sparkplug tubes, AOS, tensioners, and various hoses that are easier to get to with the engine out. $$$, but the car is running like a champ.
The bearing itself was in perfect condition and did not need replacement, but I feel more at ease by having it done.
Cheers!
