Arrow Main Bearing Insatllation Question

Hi All! I'm new to this site and this is my first post. I've been lurking in the shadows for awhile and there seems to be alot of knowledge her so I'll get to my question. I'm getting ready to put the new crank, main and rod bearings in my motor (22RE). The FSM states there are three sizes of standard main bearings and the ones they used from the factory are marked on the side of the engine block. Sure enough, stamped on my block is the numbers 3,4,4,4,5.
I purchased a crank kit with standard size bearings from Oriellys, do these numbers mean anything to me anymore? Or do I need to get these three standard size bearings from the dealer and use them to plastiguage everything?
I intend to plastiguage all the bearings anyway but didn't know if it made a difference starting with these aftermarket bearings. I wouldn't think so since they should be matched to the new crank but thought I'd ask the experts.
Thanks,
Jeff
