i dont think the head is salvageable to be honest.
on cyl 4, did the valve shoot through the head?
cuz it looks like theres no valve on the top right.

not worth fixing- would be cheaper to get another longblock.

the head is done.
the block may be salvageable
if you re-sleeve it. unless theres other damage done to it.
