'Glad you caught it in time.
"Thumps" with No "Screeching" is still a sign of life.
But,with a "Scratched" bearing(s) [or Journal(s)] AND the "Thumps" Zomezing may be about to "Spin" on you. I'd follow vstech's and GP's suggestions AND THEN SOME... All the Bearings and Journals (Plasti-gauged). Since the engine is out... Pull the Oil Pump and the Oil Filter Housing and Back Flush (With Pressurized Oil) the "Dirty/Un-Filtered side of the Oil System. I'd clean out both the Oil Cooler Lines and the Oil Cooler itself ALSO.

The things we have got away with in the past never cease to amaze me. I can remember side of the road repairs that I have done & got away with that I would not even think of trying now!! Ever run out of spares wheels on the coach & run a sexy single on the back?
