    Should I replace the bottom bracket or maintain the original

    I agree. If you don't see it & it doesn't bother you & it allows you to keep using the bike, then go with a more up to date BB.

    My "new" Orbit road bike

    My first "made to measure" frame was from a small specialist builder in Cheltenham. Well, I thought it was. When it needed a respray I had it shot-blasted & there at the top of the seat stays was stamped "Orbit". Not a very "in" manufacturer in the early 90's (that's 1990's).
