What's the damage on the follower arm like? Has it made a mess of the timing device?

With any luck you'll find all 12 bearings in the lower pan.

I have my fingers crossed for you.

You also need to check the timing device and the bushing for the intermediate shaft before refitting a repaired or replacement vacuum pump.
