Not sure now necessary it really was, but I was taught to mark the rods and caps and make sure they went back to their original cylinder.

If it had coolant getting in the oil, I'd pay extra close attention that the crank isn't all scored up.

especially #3 in particular! check clearance between rod cap and edge of crank journal, minimum of .003 max .007. don't ask how we know

Most likely.
If you can't handle the answer, don't ask the question
