What do you guys recommend for the pilot bearing application? Some say that the bushing takes more punishment and I was concerned about the bearing drying out after a while. What do you think?

i think the bearing is fine man. the bearing will outlast the clutch. so don't worry bout that. just replace it when you do your clutch and you shouldn't have anyproblems.
