Default piston numbers

Hi all,
A was helping a friend of mine take apart his 1.9 powere engerneerg lump due to a broken ring. When we took the head off The bore was scored and slight damage to the edge of the piston. just for research on his engine can you tell me what these markings mean on the pistons. they are 82,855 sp 0,045

Yeh my System 2 engine was Merc pistons and Triumph Herold rods the crank was stroked right to the limit i.e no crank left for re-gring when big ends gave up.
