Who all has bent a rod?

Tore down my 2.5 hybrid.
#4 rod is bent. Finally some damage other than a ringland!
Its not bent horribly, but enough that when the piston is installed you can tell something is funky because the piston is tight against the rear, and totally loose against the front.
When I pulled the motor apart tonight, you can barely see the rod is bent, but it just enough that you look at it and say, "something is funky here....."
