Rust and leak streaks are signs of end-term bearing failure; the absense of these is not a conclusive indication that the bearing is unimpaired.

Remove the belt from the drum pulley and spin the drum by hand. If you hear noise, that's the bearing. There's a less expensive bearing kit available here.
