Are these bearings bad? (pics)

Thanks, I will look into those
Typically no you can't just replace the bearings, you need to polish the crank and install over sized bearings. As a last ditch effort to patch it up while still in the truck? Go for it....after u have pulled all the rod caps, if nothing is obviously wrong with the rod bearing it will be pointless to replace em.

Ha yes i know this, i am nearly 100percent positive that its not that.
The lifters have about 4,000 to 5,000 miles on them they are ls7 lifters. The reason I did not think it was a lifter is because the sound does not come from one side of the engine more than the other. It sounds like its coming from the center of the engine, but I guess that the lifters are nearly in the center arnt they.

Bearing looks ok, but usually a rod bearing will go before a main. Like said above you need to polosh the crank when instaling new bearings if you want to do the job right. Good chance this could be the oil pump Oring and have nothing to do with your bearings. Id check that first.
