Chip, What you wind up doing is going to depend on what you find when you pull the pan. Are you sure it is a rod knock? What made it spin the bearing? Did it hurt the crank and rod? How much metal was put into the system? How many miles are on the engine? And so many more.
Need a bit more info to come up with a bright answer.
