I feel for your predicament having a major breakage like that. I think Porsches fitted with the M96 engine that are tracked really need the deep sump kit that helps prevent oil starvation under high cornering loads.....
As a matter of interest, how was the main bearing damage diagnosed?
You say that the car has been "running fine" after the initial vibration & rough running - I would have thought that you would have heard a bad main bearing, even at low revs.
