There is the other issue of that little grey stuff called sealant along the leading edge of the wings. Check it out in your Configuration Deviation list. A total of only 24 inches of that stuff may be missing on any portion of the wing. Start taking a better look at that type of stuff. One would never want to fly an airplane with Missing parts.
