Default Blown pistons

Hey Folks,

It's been a while. I blew the Scoob engine a long time ago but have finally pulled it a part and now the trouble starts and I need help, please.

The piston below burnt through due to poor mixture but there is a possibility the a slither which is missing from a valve on the other bank/side/head flew around and scored and wedged in the bore trying to get it to seize up.

So i need help:
Can the bores be rebored/repaired or can the sleeves change out?
Which is best?
Can the valves be reseated and changed out or does the head need changing?
Which is best?
The bearing need changing on the big end so I assume the block must come apart. Is this the case?
Will it be cheaper to get a second hand engine and scrap this one?

Thanks in advance....
