Polish up what you can of the sharp edges from that mishap to the piston.

Pull that head and take the valves out to see if the seats took a hit or if a valve got bent.
If it all looks good then slap it back together and make a compression test out of the car on that cylinder and if all is well then make those 200 horses do some work again.
