Default 2008 Altima 6 speed Manual Transmission Pilot Bearing

Does a 2008 Altima 6 speed stick 2.5 engine have a pilot shaft bushing or bearing in the crankshaft?

I have an Altima engine in my Sentra SE R Spec V there is no bushing or bearing in end of the crankshaft pilot hole in the engine that came in the car. That engine had a rod knocking so I did a rebuild. The new crankshaft I bought had a bushing for an automatic transmission which I had to cut out. I am at the point of going back in with the engine except for attaching the 6 speed stick transmission.

I have had zero luck finding a pilot shaft centering tool to center the clutch plate. I also looked online at a new set clutch kit and it shows a pilot shaft bushing comes with the kit. I really need to know if there is a bushing that goes in there or not so I can get this engine back in. Any help is greatly appreciated.

It doesn't use one but you can put one in. It will help with clutch alignment.

This is the first time I have ever seen a stick not have a bearing or bushing. I will feel more comfortable with one in so I will pick one up. I really appreciate your help. Have a fantastic New Year.
