Exclamation Are these rocker arm bearings?

When I had my cam swap done back in December they called and told me during it they broke a rocker arm and the bearings fell to the oil pan. They then dropped the pan and fished out what they could with a magnet. I have changed my oil 2 times since and today making the 3rd time, but this past time I had a magnetic oil plug. I just want to verify these are what was left of the bearings and not something else! I'm almost 99.9% positive they are, but I don't want to be wrong.

Yes, they are the needle bearings. You should invest in a trunnion upgrade kit from Comp Cams. Our sponsors carry them and I so someone with a good deal on the Sponsor Sale and Specials no too long ago.

Oh I appreciate it! I was pretty sure they were, but wanted to verify because I know what kind of luck I have.
