Those look a little bit like mine, but mine had only 30 hours on them, as opposed to 4 summers.
That rear main looks a little bit like it had a hot spot in that dark area. Yes, it does look like there might have been some small particles that got through there, and some wear. Maybe a little fuel dilution on a supercharged application?

I had sent my rings back to Total Seal, They said there is a little signs of fuel wash,which I know the motor is real rich,little detonation on the bottom of the ring cupping which I know I'm on the edge,and they are close to needing replaced,The molly looked good,Keith said that they look about normal for a marine blown engine at this power level with this many hours.He did recommend a diff ring that has a better stronger top ring.He did say make sure tofollow the bore and honing directions that Dart provided to get a good ring seal.
CT9190-255 TNT 1/16 4.500
Ring gaps are good not showing any butting and the leak down was still good The puke tank on this motor just had a little oil mist in it,so blowby wasn't bad even though how loose it was.
I been cleaning up the old block and all the other parts,going to sell.
Block w/ JE pistons 4.530 gen 6
2 sets Crane tappets
manley push rods
2 sets guide plates
2 sets comp 929springs
2 sets retainer comp w/ loc
2 sets manley valves
Crane rocker arms
2 sets rocker arm studs
4 oilpumps w/ meling/mporoso pick up
2 sets arp head bolts
I've pulled the rods apart and the rod bearings are showing a good bit of wear, to me at least,Ill post some picks.
I polished the cam and most of the tracking/marking came out,
