Wow. Properly Fubar'd
 I'm sure you could fix it though MJ! Interesting how it seems to be the middle inlet valve that's bent in each case. I suppose the interference is greater/closer for that valve?

Jeez, that should have come with an X certificate and a warning not to scroll down if you’re of a nervous disposition! What a mess!

That's destruction on a whole new level.
I've seen some wrecked engines in my time but it's normally a row of valve imprints on pistons - this is a whole new level!
