Hi,
I would say that Chris is right and a rod has been changed
it probably happend on start up with clearances wrong and there would have to be marks on the bigend bearing
Chris is right take it to a good Recon shop you may get away with just a polish if not a 10 Th regrind on all bigend Journals not good practise to under size one Journal
the shop would then have it re Nitrided Nitriding is normaly 10 Th thick
You did not say if rods are Metaled or shells
Good Luck
