I posted a query on the GMH facebook page with pics of the bearings.
I have measured these NASCO bearings and they do measure up as 216 main bearings . I've got a feeling these are rejects or 2nd grade , they are oval shaped , maybe this is normal. They squeeze down to a round shape when the caps are tightened down ? They might be useless
