hello mate
no damage to cylinder or rockers[thank god it took about 12 hours to lighten and polish them]pushrods are also all right,titanium spring cap did not get of so lightly though and has a keeper jammed in the center!
still we can rebuild.
cheers rob

Well glad to hear it wasn't as bad as it could have been. How long will it take you to get it back together.
