Started checking around the wheels for maybe fluid and another too hot baking issue and saw duct tape on the inside of the left front wheel, very strange as it wasn't there when I was hunting for the leak last time. Couldn't get it off so no idea why it's there, maybe a big deep scratch?

Next I discovered a paint chip, that was not there before and it looks like someone dropped tools on it. Some pics here.
There is NO excuse for anyone that works on these cars or any other classic car to not put fender pads on whenever the hood is opened!
They should totally repaint that fender lip and not just do a 'touchup'. You will notice that spot everytime you open the hood especially on an otherwise perfect car.
