I think I know the answer but hopefully I am wrong. I was installing new rings and found that 1 piston had a chunk missing from the wall (see pic). Is there any hope for this piston or is it dead.My guess is that it is trash but can I replace a single piston or do I have to replace all 4?

man 1 thing after another. I cant catch a break.But the second part of my question was do I need to buy all new cylinders/pistons or just the 1?Regardless it sucks because im on a huge budget but I want to do what right.
