Finally I have decided to replace the IMSB. I bought the same bearing that came in the engine from the factory. It is supplied by 123bearings.com (NSK BD20-17-A-DDUA17NX01-NSK) $57.79 US plus shipping. I also bought a puller to get the old bearing out.
As soon as I get the camshafts reinstalled on bank 2 I plan to do this bearing. I am leaning towards removing the outer bearing seal before installing it.
