Will this cause catastrophic failure?

[Wevil Kenevil]

I've purchased a pexmor 100 cc engine and an after market 100 cc cylinder and piston kit and because of misalignment of the cylinder on the original motor it is unusable due to a off center cylinder hone so I contacted the company and they refunded 90% of my purchase price and let me keep the motor well I ordered the aftermarket cylinder and piston kit and the aftermarket cylinder skirt is also cracked.

Should I just trim the cracked area off and use it or will the piston come down far enough to actually be affected by the crack.?

Please refer to picture one.

Trim that crack area off because ya don't want it falling off why your running the engine

Do the rings come down below the piston sleeve to the skirted area of the sleeve?

I trimmed and beveled it with a Dremel!
