It was meant to be noisy rod bearings. Things were looking slightly different when I stripped the engine.

Thats a bearing failure, nothing to do with the crank.

- how such is possible ??!

Is that a tdi?

Maybe it had the auto gearbox bushing installed and someone removed it in the most savage way possible.

Yes it is I5 Volvo tdi.... and it had mechanical gearbox. - how do you know ?

Removing of that auto gearbox bushing in savage way leaves different footprint.
