Maybe others have experience with the 500/600 jugs to know better. Maybe the better thing to do is to find 600 jugs and pistons and hold back your original jugs for later on.

Re: Source for R 50/5 pistons and rings
Have you tried Max BMW (maxbmw.com)? They had rings and head gaskets for my R75/5. They list new pistons and jugs on their parts fiche and I have had good luck getting parts from them. They also list an engine upgrade kit for the R50/5, with oversize pistons and jugs to increase engine size up to 1,000 cc for something like $1,200. (your old heads will fit).
You could also try euromotoelectrics.com. They mostly have electronic parts but I have gotten other stuff from them as well.
I'm not sure of this, but I think the jugs for the R50, R60 and R75 are the same casting with different size bores. You might check that also.

I've purchased many parts both new and used and have always been satisfied with their service.
