Just goes to show you that when buying a used TDI you should never trust that the "timing belt was just done" or that it "looks good." Unless you KNOW it was DONE RIGHT, be on the safe side and have it done.
Sorry to hear of your troubles. The head will have to come off to be rebuilt or replaced. Piston protrusion should be measured to verify that the rods are straight. Throw it back together with new head gasket, head bolts and a complete timing belt kit and you will be back in business.

oil in timing cover ?
after close inspection found lots oil in timing cover leak from some where so i took it apart and removed the head looks like all but 2 lifters are beveled up a bit i think after looking the only way oil could get in there is seal or cam shaft or main seal ? pistons look to be perfect no in dication they impacted the valves.though they nust have i belive the oil caused this.
