    Looks like a die chip... Maybe Fred W. will give an opinion. Cheers, RickO

    Can you post a close up of the T ?

    Ricko's suggestion is a possibility,
    but I see a discolored and possible
    flattened area on the bottom 1/3rd
    of the vertical bar, and it looks like
    it might be damaged, which pushed
    the metal down and to the right.

    A close up of that area would be very helpful.

    To me it looks like it took a hit and the metal got moved down.
