They look good - would love to know how many miles.

Indeed but since the previous owner seemed to be not too much of a car guy it must have been during the owenership before him.
Based on MyCarfax there is a service mentioned in 2017 at 115.711mi where oil pan gasket and engine mounts were replaced and I would guess that was the point wehere they also covered the rod bearings while they were down there
If so, the bearings would just have seen 12.000mi...
(which would match the great shape of the engine mounts)

Curious to know how was the condition of the upper bearing.
But we can see that the ARP 625+ bolts are a good choice too.
Thanks and Sorry, but after looking at the bottom one I didn't even touch the upper one to interfere as few as possible...
