Hayden, do you have the "101 Projects for your Boxster" book yet? Even if you don't DIY it's a good reference. There is a section on IMSB. The single row has a deeper dish than a dual row- but you have to remove the trans to see it. As you likely know the earlier cars had dual row and the later the single row. Did you have a carfax before you bought the car? It would posibly indicate if the car had an early engine replacement as there were some that did and could affect which your car has. As posted earlier the shop (Houston) I used does a lot of these and they had all the parts and tools. It's only one data point but my single row bearing when they removed it was intact after 58k miles in 9 years. It did have some wear and a slight wobble compared to a new bearing. No way to know for sure how much longer it would have gone, but sure it wasn't imminent.
