LR3 4.4 V8 crankshaft bearings
Hi all,
i opened a V8 engine and noticed that main and bigend bearings have some scratches. A crankshaft is in very good condition, so only the bearings should be replaced. But there are four types of main bearings and 3 of bigend marked with diff. colours. The problem is that on my bearings there are no colour marks or are faded. I tried to find any technical information which ones are correct for the crankshaft ( even called to LR dealer) but i can't find anything. The catalog numbers of the bearings are:
lower main-
blue/green 4464732
blue 4464739
green 4464741
yellow 4464742
bigend:
blue 4526475
green 4526476
yellow 4526477
Do you know which ones are more tight for a smaller crankshaft dimesions and which for bigger or where i can find appropriate technical information to order a proper ones?
Many thanks.LR3 V8 HSE Lpg Prins, Zambezi/Tonga

Here are codes stamped on the block. 8x2 I think is the dimensions of pistons because all the pistons are "grade 2" Maybe the other codes concern bearings, but I need an explanation.
The code is
*22222222* *KKJKJ* *
