I believe their description would be more understandable if they had written the first sentence of the second paragraph correctly; I believe it should read:
"The torque from an improperly fastened cylinder head can impart significant distortion to the bore."
The implication being that without the head being on the block the bore is subject to distortion ... and so this piece replaces the head without restricting access to the block for other work.
