Hi jjbonz,

Yes, the pilot bearing embedded in the crankshaft and the transmission clutch shaft sits on it.

If the pilot bearing is bad, you would get a grinding noise when clutch is depressed with gears engaged and vehicle running.

Gear shifting would tend to crash if the bearing is seized or partially seized.
