Noticed today that the standard snorkel intake appears to have been trimmed back (fairly crudely) with a knife. WTF?? can someone either point me to the right thread or inform we what the hell??

I didn't think that the opening was quite that wide before and can see the seration marks from short strokes on the vertical surface of the edge.Maybe just shows how (un)observant I am.
