Tell your mate he's completely wrong. The Pistons are slightly different but that's only the dish in them which affects compression ratio. They certainly aren't any taller.
The Block casings used in the ej255 and ej257 are exactly the same so to say one set of Pistons fit but another doesn't is complete nonsense.

My money is you've got the wrong rods.
