I think if you have seized pistons you need to get in touch with our FRP brake doctor Eldude.
He will provide proper advice and probably suggest that a re-furbish would be a good idea.

they must be in a bit of a state..
with that scenario I usually have to leave them connected to car, remove disc and pads, insert my 'block' and use the pedal to get them moving...
is it a LH or RH caliper?
