Nicely done, looks to have just come from Small Heath. Could be even a little wider and deeper, just a touch.  Blend that nasty sharp  edge into a smooth entry to the journal surface, drawing the edge away from the oil hole  fore and aft, but still aiming for an elliptical cup. Like musky says, get polishing. Job's a good 'un......just a few more to do.

 Swarfy.
