It almost appears if it was done while the piston was being removed, but the score mark is too deep to be created by a single pass of a broken ring.
You have a point there. Unless a piece of the ring got stuck near the top of the piston, the score would not be all the way to the top.
It almost appears like it could have been there from the factory (if the engine has not been rebuilt).
