The only way to know is to crack it open...

You can get it hot tanked and bored or even just a hone.. and it might still be good to go...

But you will need to take it completely apart and have a look and put in new rings and bearing...

depends on what the inside is like.  You will just have to take it apart and see.

o dont be worried, taking apart is the fun part, going back together is the tricky part.
