Thanks for the info staffiedrone.
I will might do something similar. I let do company install the new bearings and additional seals and i will sort out the plastic cover later. I just have to buy a crank tool.

Yes it’s well worth getting the tool. You will need that to change the chainring when it wears out anyway. It’s worth changing that at the same time you change your cassette. And chain as well of course.
