The other head is off and that side looks fine. Unfortunately I still cannot make a full revolution of the crankshaft, it blocks when the bad piston, #3, is almost at the bottom of the stroke. I think perhaps the rod is bent or some such. Too bad, the engine looks like it was in good shape, no bore scoring and the only marks on the cylinder walls are cylinder 3 where the debris left a few scratches.

CHANGE YOUR CHAIN TENSIONER PADS!!!!
