You know I just picked up this car and pulled the engine out to see what was all inside. I hadn’t even noticed that yet. Wow haha thanks for catching that. Lol this is getting more interesting by the minute. Decided to pull the cam out to identify and found the crank had a ridiculous amount of end play. Pulled the engine out and found the crank side journal wiped out along with cam bearings. Obviously I will now have to go through the whole engine. That situation kept me so side tracked I didn’t notice the pistons. Oh well. Thanks again 👍🏼

Still interested on piston smoothing feedback
