Top of the piston has a crap ton of carbon buildup for a new engine. Also don't see any oversize markings on piston so just exactly what does rebuilt mean to the shop?

The stud looks like a cutoff wheel was used, but the center is not cut. Its like a groove that goes half way around the stud. The rocker arm did that to the stud. I was able to wiggle the rocker around and get it to fit into the groove. The only piston picture I posted was the problem child. Here is the one next to it showing .030 oversized.
