Those in the pic are newly installed??? I trying to decide if I need new ones or not. I spun a rod bearing so I am sure it flung all kinds of junk b ut the block only had 500 miles on it. They are copper now , just wondering if that is good or not. I have seen pics of ones that are partially silver. So I was wondering which way they were new.
Thanks!
