how would you make cyclops not die? just never show him going to alkalie lake? perhaps he just leaves the school and never comes back?
but then there's a little bit of a logic gap. if they found jean, somebody would tell cyclops and he would return.

Basically. Have him leave, then cut all mention of him. His death had next to no impact on anything. Only Logan ever asked what happened to him. There's also brief mention by Xavier. So really, there's no point in it. It could've easily have been a major thing. In fact, it should've. It wasn't. So why keep it if it can be cut. Though I'm not sure if it could be done.
As for him coming back after they find Jean, I'd assume he just went somewhat out of contact.
