Hi Mathias,
Looks more like an injector ring to me. Certainly more prominent on the right hand model than the left one but from your photo you can just make out a faint circle in the same place as the model on the right. I'd suggest somewhere in the felting or tumbling process one model or casting part got more of a tumbling than the other.
However only my opinion, for what it's worth.
