In an actual engine, the top of the cylinder is covered by the cylinder head. The cylinder head contains critical components such as the valves, spark plugs (in gasoline engines), and fuel injectors. It also plays a role in sealing the combustion chamber and facilitating the flow of air and exhaust gases. Additionally, the cylinder head often includes coolant passages to help regulate engine temperature.

What is cylinder ridge?

In a internal combustion engine, a cylinder ridge is an unworn area around the top of the cylinder wall. In that engine, the piston moves up and down in the cylinder, and the rings seal the piston in that cylinder. But the rings are spaced "down a bit" from the top of the piston. And when the piston reaches top dead center in the cylinder, the rings haven't gone all they way to the top of the cylinder. They end up wearing the cylinder out "underneath" that top area. In other words, it's the top part of the cylinder that is not in contact with the piston rings. It's the "unworn" part, if you will.
