the picture of my finger is the small bits whicg were all but welded to the piston head, and the others are of the damage done to both piston head and cylinder of jug...

once you take it all apart you going to try to rebuild it? You may be money ahead if you buy a replacement engine. Parts for these engine with the shipping can cost more than buying a new engine.
Your engine ate something by the looks of it. Not being able to look at it first hand that is only a guess.
