Spigot Bearing - please help!

Bugz said:

What material is the spigot bearing made from?
Phosphor bronze, oil impregnated?

Sintered bronze ,oil impregnated?

This is for my Discovery TD5, the one I have purchased is sloppy in the crankshaft, the void in the end of the crankshaft measures evenly all round.

I did see an old post about this but no replies.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so how has this been resolved?

Appreciate any advice.
