Sorry Charlie.. What is the significance of this? Amazon/eBay was not around in the 1960's... You can also buy ancient Spanish gold coins, Spanish Gold ingots, Knights Templar artifacts on eBay. Am I missing the point of your post?
Here is a photo of what happens on a later show why digging at Smith Cove
And they thought they had a water problem in the pit!
Yep.... What I found was when looking to see if there were any previous reports of a concrete tank/box/wall/trough found in Smiths Cove I was pretty amazed to find the "Lack of" stuff found there over the years of search. Given all the activity that has taken place there you would of thought that more artifacts (leftovers, rubbish etc) would be present... Those scissors were about all that has been found (metal)..I have a pair I bought to cut leather in the 1990's before there was the marketing Interweb or Amazon. Point is that design has been in continual production for a LONG time.
I re watched those bits ( I Think the earlier link I posted was missing some video)
It is very clear that the pipe is not on Dans desk when they arrive but is added during the conversation. So they must of got it from the structure. I see that Rick draws multiple holes on the sketch.
It must be a bad editing job and they will introduce the other holes/pipes later
OR
The pipe is obviously modern so they do not mention it..
I added a couple of shots of the u shaped structure fully exposed

The Smithsonian Institute has identified them as typical of Spanish-American manufacture prior to the mid 19th century.
