Name? what do you mean by name? They are made by Subaru, they are oversize variants of standard forged pistons. To be entirely sure you are getting the right piston, you need to take some measurements of the dish (height, width and depth), as I don't think the engine type can be relied on to give you the correct piston.
You can order one from us, or any decent subaru specialist I imagine. Remember you can't buy rings for just one piston, so you will need to reuse the rings you have, or preferrably buy a new set of 0.5mm oversize rings.

Okay, to be honest, it's Subaru and it's not going to be cheap. By the time you've bought the one piston and some rings, you're probably looking at the thick end of £350.
