Unless you know the engine has not been stuck long
with no water down the pipe it almost always pays
to pull the head and clean up the cylinders above
the pistons. I then spray PB Blaster all over
cylinders pistons use alot. Take your time this
will keep from damaging rings.The worst thing you
you can do is to put a pipe wrench or pry bar and
apply lots of pressure unless you have lots of
money to replace cam gears and rods etc.Also I
have seen engines that the lifters were rusted
and stuck not the pistons.Go slow check out everything.
