and ya, its plastiguage, uses a small strip of plastic, you crush it between the bearing and the journal by torqing down, then remove the bearing and check to see how wide it got from being squished. then it has a legend to see what your clearance is by how wide the strip got. you can find it at most auto places.
bearing clearances on most honda motors are .002 of an inch and more then that and you will have low oil presure along with premature bearing faluire TIGHT. thats why they last so long and if you want every bit of perfomance out of you engine use 0w30 mobil one oil .
