What, pray tell, is that intact round doing at the side of this guy's head?

Not intact...just BIG!

That's probably a 7.62mm (or .308 caliber) standard NATO round.

It does look a bit like an intact straight-walled round, but I think it is really an empty conventional bottle-necked casing that was just ejected.

I think that gun's ejector is right under his cheek.
