Hi. Is this damage from feeder fingers? It seems to be the same angle as others I've found, but much thicker and only in the one bay. It's not a gas bubble.

Thanks, Mike

You have to press on it with 10# sledge hammer.

Well if it;s not a elongated gas bubble It don'r look like a die gouge to me. I have seen trails that large but rare and it would be an oddity/ I don't know what it is if it's not a elongated gas bubble
