When the timing plug is removed a bearing is visible inside the engine cover. I would like to know the inside diameter of this bearing and what the bearing is called for future reference.

Thanks
John

____ That bearing is just a (relatively cheap) std.ball-bearing 17x40 by 12mm-thick, and ought be referred to as the crankshaft's left tip-end support-bearing.

"The crankshaft's left tip-end support-bearing"... It shall be called! Thanks Bob

In our little group, we refer to it as the crankshaft outrigger bearing.
