Hi all, have a friend new to Austin sevens, he had just got his newly acquired 35 tourer on the road and joined us today on our annual Rally. 20 miles into the run from home, engine noise and some smoke from engine bay, photo below tells the story. Question is, what may have caused it? and is it viable to replace the piston, hone, and new rings all round. 
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
