Isn't there a cage for the needle bearing to fit into? If so then the number of positions would be your answer...

no, there is two linear half evenlope( put together comes as one) and 29 or 30 needle

Those needles are easy to lose.--------------Just put 2 of those engines together.------Will look in the manual tomorrow to see how many are in there.----------30 seems like the total If I recall.

middle bearing contain 30 needles but not sure how many should be on connecting rod,

f you can scan manual and send me pages some as pdf file it will be nice.
