Bad news, they often crimp the rings on those ones to. A real crap engine the 2.0 diesel, such a change from the pd which was very good.

I can't think of any safe engines these days, the closest you get are the likes of the fiat 1.9`s where they fracture the rockers avoiding valve damage (most of the time)

The older Pug 2.0hdi's will do that too if you're lucky :-X
