Could well be. When you receive 'the book' - you'll notice a story in
it regarding sardine sandwiches and pork chop bones. Story is called
" 'opkins' 'erald" This could be another of the same. Do not be
overly concerned at what appears to be an oversight. When I became
elevated to the giddy heights of PA to Stokes, I had to contend with
a customer whose Spitfire had wire wheels at the front and discs at
the back. Open the boot lid - and there was one of each inside.
Now you tell me how the hell that car got all the way through
inspection and out to the customer without someone noticing it didn't
look quite right.
