Do they have a dot anywhere on the face? If there's a dot, they're stock.

Yea def stock pistons from the dot at 9 o'clock on the piston as dr.whig said...and yes the cam in there is too big from the looks of those eyebrows...and don't be suprised if the bottom end hasn't been touch as I have a 200k+ mile LS with factory cross hatching in the cylinders...
