2018 Seadoo GTX 230 timing chain / cylinder damage

Hey guys! I have a 2018 seadoo gtx 230 that had a timing chain fail this past summer. I’m the third owner. I believe the first owner rarely used it. The second owner is a reseller and it only had 16 hours when we purchased 2 years ago. I removed the engine recently to assess damage and planned to replace the chain / valves / anything showing signs of damage or wear while I was in there, but I did not expect to see these horizontal bands in cylinders 1 and 3. The ski just now has a little over 30 hours and those bands are deep enough to catch a finger nail. Any thoughts on the cause / recommendations on a fix? Can you have a machine shop bore or re sleeve a 1503?IMG_7518.jpegIMG_7519.jpegIMG_7520.jpeg
