Scope pics of the motor, time to rebuild?

So I have the motor on a stand while I am going through my rebuilding of the front end. I finally took the time to run my scope through the cylinders. Granted it was kind of spur of the moment change in plans to pull the engine/trans so no compression or leak down test. HOWEVER...I am not encouraged by the pics you will see. Lots of carbon, what looks like a way too clean cylinder (head gasket issue I think), another with a possible burnt valve and some scoring. What do you think?
