is this even safe?

Any chance it's a one of the old c clip still valves that got welded shut?

Throw it in the lagoon before someone gets hurt.

That's putting it mildly.

Almost looks like the power tube broke off, was welded back on, and someone went over it by hand with a Dremel in order to cover it up.

Can you get some really close-up pics, just for curiosity's sake? I'm betting several members here would love to see what was done here in greater detail.

Nope. I wouldn't trust it.
