WRIST PIN NOISE 200 1980

I have a 1980 B21A Carb with 427,000 Km - runs well no oil consumption. Has the usuall piston slap on cold starts for ten minutes but my mechanic said there was wrist pin noise as well - expensive to fix.
So I need the bottom line - is this 'noise' anything to worry about?
Will the engine self destruct? Or will it just continue to run noisy and go for another 200K up to say 700,000KM?

Thanks to all. Mike
