Have you taken the pistons out yet? Sounds like either a cold seize, or a spun bearing. If the piston expands too fast before the rest of the motor, your piston to cylinder clearance will decrease, and will seize, and being you revved it up the skirt broke, because the skirt is the largest part of a piston. The marks on the top of the piston could actually be from pre ignition from pieces of the piston making its way up there.
