Maybe you could find a new bearing, places like McMaster Carr sell that sort of thing. If you replace the compressor then yes you need to replace the dryer, O-rings at any fittings you disconnect, then pump it down and recharge it. There's probably no excessive metal shavings in there but I would still replace the orifice tube any time the system was opened.
