Guess I should have read a little further. Ha.
Glad to see that you are tearing into it.
Looks like when the ring broke, possibly a piece of it wedged in the cylinder causing the piston to chip out like that.
I have a 22Re in the storage that did the same thing.
I have a lot of pics and info on my build thread of when I put my engine together.
Make sure you Plasti-gauge the mains and rod bearings to check for oil clearance. That is a Must!
Engnbldr has some great kits. Thats who I used for most of my stuff. You could also get a Cam while you are in there. Make it run a little harder.
I think you will be surprised at the power difference after the rebuild. Will be like night and day.
Again.....Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Hopefully I can put in this weekend. And it will start...
