Why is it important to replace the bearing caps in their original position?

How do you replace the rear oil seal on a Chevy c-10?
1987 and newer requires removing transmission and flywheel to gain access to the rear main seal. The seal is one piece and easy to replace once you gain access to it. 1986 and older requires removing the engine oil pan, oil pump, loosen all main bearing caps, remove rear main bearing cap, replace upper and lower halfs of seal. The upper half is tricky but it can be done. All bearing caps would need to be torqued to specs for assembly. I would suggest purchasing a shop manual for that vehicle if you decide to do the job yourself.

If you're talking about a connecting rod bearing cap, the rod will need to be resized with the new bearing cap in place.
