Detail of the LOX dome on the No. 2 side of the engine. Note the horizontal weld line, typical of the "fish mouth" LOX dome.

Prior to finding the serialized orifice plate on the heat exchanger, there was some doubt as to the identify of this engine, and I used the type of LOX dome to help decide which engine this was.
