Have had no issues in the past myself with pitted pistons, just a seal kit required, but one piston in the calliper was stiff, and on strip down found pitted corrosion at the top of the piston, but not sure if it goes as deep as the seal when the piston is fully home.
The bore looks o.k

Alyn the new front grooved discs you supplied to me are great, just got around to fitting them, bought them from you before Christmas.
