Pete,
   If you want the fix to end all fixes (but not the cheap way out) here it 
is. Forget about honing those parts. No telling how many Bozo's have been 
running abrasives on a hands drill "honing" it out straight and true over 
the last 23 years.. Bite the bullet and either buy some new cylinders or 
send them to Apple (or some other co.) and have them sleeved. Refill and 
bleed with silicone. 
    Quit carrying around that trunk full of parts for side of the road 
rebuilds and enjoy the car. Of course some people like to have all that 
black gunk floating around to give them something to do,  but I prefer to 
see the blue and that odometer ticking away. 
   I would love to here the theory on how oil gets into these closed systems 
;-). 
Good luck,
