3 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Great! From other parts of the description I think this is what they mean, that the cylinder showed no sign that the engine had seized (due to lack of lubricant, coolant, etc)."

I think it sounds more correct when we consider that it is the (absence of) marks which are being described.
