Only way is to look!

at the top of the bore is there a ridge (approx 10mm down) if so how deep?
The other thing is to buy a set of rings and see what your clearance is

If the engine is supposed to be a 1.8 would it be 1.9 pistons i need? Anyone know of a suplier?
the next oversize will be about 0.5mm greater than your current bore.
although you could fit 83mm pistons to take it from 1781cc to 1870cc (1.9) which is what i'll be doing with my G60.
alternatively, there is the audi 3A 2l bottom end conversion, details can be found here: http://www.vwgolfmk1.o…ontent&pa=showpage&pid=39
which would work out cheaper than buying new pistons for your 1.8. but if you were to get the 3A block and then find that it needs new pistons, you're back to square one.
