You need to pull the motor and pull the heads and jugs off. Clean, inspect and measure. A whole new set of pistons and jugs are pretty cheap fyi

Is it old? More than one previous owner? Not the original chassis?
Like it or not, your best plan of action is detailed pictures and measurements.
Yeah some may call it overkill, but you can't have too much overkill.
