You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

In the past I have bought bearings from Gem transmissions in Warwick - they specialise in all sorts of bearings and stuff of that nature and you'll save a fortune over a bike spares retailier. Last time I used them for rear wheel bearings in my Honda Benly and they only cost a few quid and they wern't cack bearings either, pretty sure they were SKFs, they wern't chinese crap anyway.

You'll have to supply the bearing details off the casing or better still take the old ones in as pattern.
