looks like just where the compression sealing ring made a imprintation..run yuor finger across it..it'll be an obvious groove cut out and if so you need the loc-wire gasket for it to seal properly

if its raised, that might be the loc wired ones, i havent had a set of those before, my reg. eddy's had a light impression from the gasket, but not raised above the head suface enough to form a "raised edge".
