Looking @ the bore, there are some hours on the previous rebuild.
I also would lightly hit it with a deglazer,and re ring.
Nothing to loose except the ring cost/gaskets.
later down the road if you are not happy, then other options are available.
I can't count the many times I just re ringed various engines,
and in all of them, the oil consumption dropped/power increased.
Be sure to wash the bore with hot soapy water, after the light deglazing.
ya gotta get the abrasive out of there.
