Derek: with all due respect, and the knowledge that not everyone can tear down an engine in the middle of a field repair it on the spot (I sure can't!), Bob is right: if that's a loose rod, it'll almost certainly be a major job, and not just the bad rod, but why it went bad (all bearings badly worn, need replacement? all journals need regrinding?? oil system plugged to that one rod?? etc. etc.
If you're unfamiliar enough with engines to not know what kind of repair/complications a loose rod can mean, you shouldn't try to tackle this yourself, without someone experienced to look over your shoulder every step of the away; that's not meant to sound demeaning: no one knows how to do everything, and the things we can do we learned from others who came before.
