It’s their supplied “compression ring with an integrated sealing for optimal protection of the headset bearing against moisture and dirt is also included.” But it doesn’t fit.
Will any old compression ring work in the top bearing?

any old compression ring
Needs to be the right taper angle, 99% sure yours is 45°, e.g. FSA H2081

That's what I'm wondering - what's the black blob between the bearing and the cover, some sort of combined collet and seal? You could try a generic compression ring instead, that might gain a mm, and of course #spam https://grafixbyjorj.co.uk/ headset covers come is three different depths to cater for variations in bearing and compression ring height
