Default Help with rod bearings. engine rebuild?

Hey guys so I noticed a ticking sound coming from the engine this morning, I showed it to our master tech at the shop (I'm an intern at a shop here in denver, not a pro)and he said it sounded like my rod bearing.
He said the rod bearing HAD NOT spun.
the car is an AP1 with about 150K miles on it.
I've had a p1399 code for a while, recently had a valve adjust, new plugs, always fresh oil every 3k, BG MOA once and a while.

I'm replacing the rod bearing next week but what I'd like to know is what other parts should be replaced while I have the engine apart?
I'm hoping there isn't any major damage as it just started a very faint tick this morning.
I know i wont know for sure the extent of the damage until its apart, i was just wondering what is recommended changing while the engine is out.
Labor is free that's why I'm not just swapping another engine into it.
Thanks guys

Check the oil pan first to see the amount of debris in the pan. If there is a large amount of debris you will have a large laundry list of stuff to check and clean. If the pan is relativley clean your rebuild will go much smoother.
