Sounds like the bearings were getting enough oil for them to survive fairly unscathed. If they had a little wear this might have helped them survive the low-oil flow a bit better.

With no signs of damage, I'd replace the rods and mains and call it a day.

I wouldn't bother with the int shaft bearings, they're a pain to replace, plus they wear less, and as an additional point - they seem to be very hard to find right now.
