Gasket for top of cylinders ? HUH ?

In my 101 projects book, there is a line that has me totally confused.

Help me decipher this sentence .... I don't recall, nor do i have any type of gasket that sits on top of the cylinders.

They are called "CE sealing rings" and were used on most of the Mahle cylinders.

Carrera doesn't have head gaskets. The cylinder has a taper and the torque is above 25#ft used on CE head seals.
