Swing Arm Bearings
#3
I'd regrease the swingarm pivot bearings and all those in the suspension linkage, but there's no need to replace unless there's noticeable free play in them. There should be no side-to side movement, a couple of millimetres vertical play is normal though.
Lube the chain and spin it round  for a bit, if there are no horrendous tight links it should be OK... it can hardly have worn out in that mileage. If it's been stored under cover and the surface rust is just due to condensation there shouldn't be any problem.
