Default 1997 Cobra -IMRC issue - found the issue

After almost a year I have found the problem with my IMRC on the Cobra. No I have not been working on it for a year, just with 3 kids not much garage time.

I replaced all the gaskets, still throwing the 171 and 174. I did some research and found to check the pivot points (bearings) on the butterfly valves on the IMRC, and there it is. I was able to stumble the engine with choke cleaner. This is after 2 passes at fixing the gaskets.

I found a listing for the bearing and o ring needed. Is there anyone who has a DIY or has completed this repair?
