    You need new head bolts.

    Piston might have chipped or let go completely.

    You should inspect the head before making the assumption that its fine even though it was never overheated.

    Seems most L67 heads are cracked between the valve seats.

    Not that those cracks matter.

    But damage from a piston eating the head is.
