Which Crankshaft Bearing for 2G

I need your help with the following. The crankshaft bearings on my '95 AWD need to be replaced but I don't know how to determine which ones I need. They make them in different thickness and they are somehow color-coded but i see no useful signs on them.

why not just replace them all? Clevites are almost next to nothing on price...

If your crank is fine and no polishing or rounding is needed, go standard size.

Ok, here is how I know these were built in the factory. They looked at the crankshaft and depending on what thickness bearings needed to go with that crankshaft that is what they put in. They are somehow supposed to be either marked or color-coded but I can not find any useful info on that nor can I find useful marks on the parts I have.

I don't see damage on the crankshaft but I will take it to a shop to get it checked.

See the below screenshot for the very same bearing, they are all standard but differ in thickness, I believe. See the remarks column.
