Default ran a lt 80 out of oil started to seize, need info

Apparently my older Lt80 burns way more oil than my newer one. Ran it out of oil. It started to seize up, but did not seize completely. Let it sit and it fires right up. I turned it off, took it apart to look at the cylinder and there is no scarring on the cylinder - it is smooth. Should I still rebuild - bore and new piston? Thanks for help.
