Can I tell with the engine number whether IMS is problem?

You change "like for like", staying with whatever style bearing was in the car.

Parts prices you can get from LN's website, labor costs are very similar to doing the more standard hybrid ceramic retrofit, with the exception of an additional hour or so of labor time to install the oil line running from the spin on filter adaptor to the IMS flange; otherwise the process is exactly the same.
