The pistons themselves do have space for a second oil scraper ring at the bottom of the piston skirt. A second oil scraper ring should be fitted to each piston when rebuilding the engine, particularly when re-using the old wet liners and pistons, the purpose being to take up wear in the liners. I haven't found any reference to this in the workshop manual but Ian Cox was able to enlighten me once again: he is a mine of information!
