Best case it's detonation but it the piston has marks just take it apart before it is all junk.
Good luck

Man, I know you don't want to tear it down again, but I say you get a second opinion from another shop, at least one that has experience with that specific platform. I say look at it as if you were trying to give someone else advice with the same problem, and go with that.

My #7 piston recently lost a chunk on the outside edge (forged). It bent the electrode and 4 valves while it passed the pieces around. I doubt it could be a rod because if it was that bad you would hear it + it would probably hit the flat side the head first. It don't sound good, probably ought to open her up.
