Aww, you are the best, thanks for enlarging the detail of the damage.
Being a Japanese two stroke person for a long time, I am sad that putting in new crank pins is not an option - perhaps that is a consideration with a new crank? That way a rebuildable crank with new pins never needs oversized bearings and a weaker pin or journal.
Another option is to go full 'Japanese' and have bearings with inner and outer races. It does away with the Systeme Delagarde(?), but again makes future maintenance easy.
Peter Breed's method of sleeving reduces the basic strength, not preferable imho....
