240 Engine KnocK? 200 1991

I know someone who ran a 90 240 into the red due to a seeping coolant hose. After that the car had piston slap. The sound is a low thick sound and gets slightly quieter when its warmed up. Wondering if the piston swells from heat and dampens the sound. I did a compression test and it was slightly lower but not so much, maybe 10 or 15 out of the 160 0r what ever the spec is on compression. Engine had 100,000 miles.
