hmmm... to me, that looks like it's ready for the bin. Need to find a replacement cylinder.

Head stud failure. The cylinder pressure caused the head to lift and the gasket squeezed out. If the rings are in tact, it probably wasn't caused by detonation.
We have good used cylinders if you are looking for a replacement.
