Muscateer chains and axle bearings

Ok well I removed the front chain guards and on the L side I noticed that several rollers where missing on the chain. I measured the chain for one side and it is near about 16' total for 3 chains on one side. I have no idea what the chain size is as, it is not marked.

How do I determine what chain I need to get?

I pulled the front sprocket, and axle to discover a semi sealed tapered roller bearing on both inner and outer axle portions. The # on the seal is Timken L 44600L, the actual bearing is L44643LA, I will update with a seat # once I have it removed from the axle housing.

It looks to me like I'll be replacing all the chain and doing 12 bearings too....JUST 4 GOOD Measure! Now I just need to find 12 bearings so I will start to check locally for them and branch out from there.

UPDATE

Pulled the race, has what appears to be # of 0-L44610 on the side and I can see clearly it is a Timken product.
