Rebuilding my Lb7. About to assemble the pistons. I need help confirming I have them set right. Mahle pistons rings and I believe there are the three piece set. I will load a pic.

That there is actually 3 rings on the piston. Alldata showed a 4 ring setup for some reason, but I just wanted to make sure.

Tell what y'all think about this. Pistons were dipped or sprayed at the machine shop I got them cleaned up at. Is this ok to have that coating on there?

Here is a pic from the service manual. The "4th" ring is the spring inside of the bottom oil ring.
