Pistons got took a hard hit. They have scars but are fine. No different then cutting in valve reliefs. You can even get a valve relief cutting tool to clean the marks up.
The valves look good from the pictures, so it's hard to tell if they are bent. I'm pretty sure they are, so you'll need new valves and possibly new guides.

Might be cheaper to drop in a used low mileage LS4 and swap out the cam and lifters. You can find long blocks on E bay for less then 800.00. I would also swap out your valve springs after having them checked out.

Don't give up and try to get someone to split the cost with you. This should not have happend.
