Question What do you think of my engine pic's?

I just got my cosmo engine tonight and took a few quick shots of it. I'm wondering if there is this silicone from the factory inbetween the housings and irons? Also WTF is the deal with this weld looking thing on my rear rotor housing? Do others have this?

Thats a heat tab to tell if you ran it hot if you ever return it.

Nah... look above the trailing sparkplug on both sides. Looks like someone welded there or something.
