styler, what you are looking for is this shape around the gudgeon pin support... ie looks like it was made by puiching a plug into it. if there are undercuts between the gudgeon and the crown, it cannot be forged/squeeze cast.

basically, when ya look at it, think " if i was to pour water into the piston and freeze it, would the ice fall out when i try to tip it over?" (of course with the gudgeon pin holes fille dwith plasticine or whatever)
