I have eventually found someone local who has stripped off the head and this is what was found:

Valve has a hole in it! Melted through / something gone through it. So new valves needed for me! Then get the head sorted etc.. Now I am debating on whether to go for forged internals or whether to just wait and do that another time.

If you have the spare cash mate then do it while the head is off. New rods and valves then you will have piece of mind
