I have seen the same thing due to detonation. I would defineately check the rod bearings, as has been said if it was detonation there should be some evidence at the bearings. I thought I heard that there was a problem with some VP fuels not being to spec (dont remember where I heard it). I was wondering if it showed any evidence of being lean that might account for higher engine temps also and could cause some burning of the piston material. Just a thought.
