Second opinion steam cleaned piston

You can do a head gasket replacement with engine in situ. Not a big deal.
Use all-metal headgaskets and that will stop a slipped sleeve, but even if it didn't it is manageable to pin a sleeve with the engine still in the vehicle.
Get your heads decked. Pressure test your block. Rebuild with ARP studs.
You'll be fine.

@11chuck that is the general idea, it does assume you keep the Disco in good shape. You may also require a switch to ARP studs get a good confirmed torque all the way around.
