It looks like number 6 cylinder (nearest the bulkhead) failed. Boroscoped it and it looks like Ive melted it, its welded itself to the barrel and torn a piece off the piston, which has bounced round the cylinder. Ill have pics when the engines out. Not old age cos its done less than 80k miles. The spark plug looked like this though, note the snapped electrode :-
