Whilst assembling all my pistons and rods on the Black & Decker, I dropped one of them, and now it's scrap.

The chap at the machine shop can't identify the exact piston to order one in, only that it's an AE piston. So I am asking the Chimaera fraternity if someone can identify this piston so I can order one.
Also, I have included a pic of the inside of the piston that shows where material has been removed. ALL of them are like this. Is this normal? Balancing I assume..? But seeing as ALL of them are done, surely one would be left alone, so there is a start point (the lightest one) confused

But the main thing is getting it identified. Grateful for any constructive help.






Cheers
Cad

The HRC number is a landrover number I think. My cylinder heads have a similar number.
