The condition of the cylinder wall is the most important.
That piston is trash and if it scored the cylinder wall then it will need a new sleeve and that will cost plenty making the block worth that much less.

There are a couple more pics in my thread about the issue. When my car is ready ( maybe tomorrow) I'll take more pics.

It's not scrap guys. Even the engine builder 20+ years and designed engines for Ford says the cylinder wall is clean the block is still good. Just need to replace the # 8 piston and it's rods.
