I would order 4 wrist pin bushings if indeed that is the failure, and do them all - they are not that expensive. A machine shop will need to install them because they have to be reamed to size after installation in the pin bore. You will also likely need a rod if the bushing has spun in the bore - a reputable machine shop will not re-use a rod like that.
You can't order rod bearings yet until you know the size of the rod journals, as the crank may have been ground in the past.
