Yes there is a bearing there. You must remove the driveshaft, then the yoke, and then remove the 4 bolts on the aluminum seal retainer. You will expose the bearing and then determine whether or not it has to be replaced.
Be very careful to acknowledge which way the seal retainer is installed. It can fit several different ways, but because of the oiling hole, it should only fit one way. If you rotate it in any way, it will not oil the bearing and the bearing will destroy itself.
This is true for Np 203's as well as 205's.
