Re: Seized Piston Looks like you head gasket was leaking. Time for a de-carbon too. Use a wooden stick.
24:1 or 30:1 synthetic oil after will keep that to a minimum.
Piston skirt scuffing is usually from "cold seizure" where the piston expands faster than the cylinder walls because of too much load/revs too soon before the engine is fully warmed.
