Default Reflecting cylinder walls

Hi folks...

yesterday I took off my cylinder head because the head gasket was burned... Of course I broke off the base of the ignition distributor...

Ordered some new parts today and looked at the engine again and found that the cylinder walls are almost mirror clean!!!






The engine ran well. A pressure loss test beforehand also showed a loss of only 25% on all cylinders. (In the middle of the green area of the display.) However, I don't really like the bare cylinder wall. Can anyone tell how I should deal with this problem? I'd like to hone over it, but I don't want to pull the pistons. I have concerns with the connecting rod bearings made of white metal.

What would you do?

Does anyone have the material composition of the liners?

MFG Andy
