It's hosed. Why do you care?
Putting the correct lubrication (GL-4 gear oil) in will not put steel back in the bearings.
FYI, the needle bearing is one of several possible faults here, and even if that is the problem, it is exceedingly unlikely to be the only casualty. 4th gear is VERY different than any other gear in many respects. Especially, the cluster sees insignificant transverse stresses in 4th, and substantially larger stresses in any other gear.
About the only way to hose that particular bearing is oil starvation. Other bearings mentioned (especially in the front of the transmission) can "spin" and get hosed up much more easily.
