I canot say that they removed the bearings and inspected. they have driven many miles without any problems.
I personally had a injector stick open on the truck I drive and it dumped a good amount of desiel fuel into oil pan before I caught the problem, only clue was the fuel consumption was more than usual. I have driven the truck another 30,000 miles since this happened without any failure.
Most owners will inspect and install new rod and main bearings as a preventive measure around 300,000 miles, with or without adding desiel fuel before oil changes.
I know antifreeze will eat up bearings.
