gyroscopic precessional loading on the bearings
This would not concern me too much for a normally aspirated direct drive engine, and I doubt that other types of engines are commonly installed in spin approved aircraft.

My experience has been that the engine bouncing around in the engine mounts can be a greater concern, but the forces required to do this are not so much a result of a "normal" spin, but more aggressive aerobatics.
