[QUOTE="ws6transam, post: 1350293, member: 65064"] It looks like a stripe to me and it also looks like there's crosshatch pattern showing through the discoloration. I doubt it'll be a problem. A soft-sieze will have shown definite galling on the cylinder wall as the aluminum from the piston skirt adheres itself to the cylinder wall. When you pull off the cylinder (as you should very well do, even if it's for peace of mind), inspect the piston skirt. If it shows only polish at the bottom of the skirt, you are good to go. If there are vertical scratches, scuffing, or any roughness that can be felt with your fingertips, it's probably evidence of a mild sieze in which case you will want to reverify bore diameter and piston to cylinder clearance.
