Mains are inserts originally.
I have concerns about a one piece rear seal on a engine that uses shims on the main bearings. I think it could be done but great detail would be needed to make sure there was no oil path between the inside edge of the shims and the OD of the seal.
If the engine is line bored so no shims are needed than a one piece seal would be great.
