Just for good measure and documentation. Please post photos of your yellow 18 or 22 lid vents. These are known to range from BAR-B-Q-KETTLE era to the "current style"/raised WEBER lid vents.

18.5"
You guys notice that all the older vents have a little flaw on the outside edge of the vent under the "I" in ILL.? I'll take a closer look at my 22 but it's very clear on my 18.

there's usually one in the upper left too. sometimes it's a nub that wasn't properly ground off, sometimes it's ground down too far.

Just took a look at the 18 and yes, there is a little rough spot on the upper left. The More You Know.
