Hmmmm..
not usually known for heads going.
No.3 piston and bore is the usual.
Or the main bearings due to oil over heating or starvation.
as a rule these engines are reliable,
they dont like miss-use and lack of servicing.

Our local engineering firm had a head off one to repair, cracked between valve seats and the bloke wanted it welding.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
