Those cylinders look like they were full of water and broken by freezing. It's pretty unlikely the absence of coolant holes in the head had anything to do with it. Those "steam holes" are needed on the siamesed cylinders of engines like the 261 and the small block 400 V8 to promote coolant flow up the sides of the cylinders and prevent the formation of localized boiling where the coolant can't flow between cylinders.
