I dont know enough about metalurgy to suggest well a "BRONZE" insert will behave on a "hardened" Packard crank-pin compared to copper.

I think you want to go back and read that section again. The final friction surface of the insert was tin, not bronze. Bronze was used as the matrix to support the tin.
