Yeah it looks like detonation. That piston was really close to losing its ringland completely. I would say that they shouldnt be reused. There is obvious pitting and erosion on the surface and around the ring land area. I would budget for new pistons. For moderate power rebuild, new stock pistons (54C) should be just fine.
