That is crazy! Just today I found what appears to be some type of lead cap or seal. I couldn't figure it out for the life of me and I never knew these existed. I'm not sure this is or isn't a lead seal but it's a great place to start. Thank you for the post!!!

I'll try to get a pic posted. Haven't had much luck doing so yet and have zero interest in computers and their functions. I keep learning just enough to keep my head above water. Thanks again!
