OK, I'm 99% sure that I'm being ridiculously paranoid, but looking for someone knowledgeable to tell me that and put my mind at ease. I thought about email aerosport about this, but I don't want them to think I'm being fussy and critical.
In my engine (overhauled O-320), on one of those 8 long tubes on the top that go from the centre out to the cylinders, there is a tiny "ding". The paint is not cracked. I'm sure I haven't dropped anything on my engine, so it must have come like this. As I say, I'm 99% sure such a minor ding is not even an issue worth giving a second thought to, but would somebody here who knows about engines mind having a look at this photo and reassure me?
Thanks!!
Phil
