The correct combination, as I think you probably already suspect really, is an R barrel + R head or SE/SP barrel + SE/SP head.
If you want to play safe, use an SE/SP "L" barrel with an R "H" head, but it's not an ideal situation and can mess up the jetting due to the low compression.
"Pitting" in the piston is generally a sign of detonation caused by either high compression or lean mixture.
