Update: Found aluminum in the oil pan and continued to disassemble the long block. What I found was that a valve did indeed float, no damage to the piston, no bent valve.
What was found was that all but the drivers side intake cam journal had substantial scoring due to what I believe to be loss of oil pressure(sprockets failing). I ended up buying new heads, cams , sprockets, valves, springs, bearings and cradles.
The car is about ready to go, just dealing with an evap code at the moment(p0458). Purge valve is fairly new, Ill connect the smoke machine to the car and verify if there is a leak.
One unpleasant surprise was that the UEL FT86 speed factory headers had gone bad due to a dislodged comb. Part has less than 30k miles and I had to go back to stock. In doing so the car now has a (P0031). I ordered a new bank 1 sensor.
Ill add pics of the damage asap.
