Nice spot Jwillis. Looks like the wires for pin 14,15 are chopped. Looks intentional.
@OP I mean the black transistor-looking thing, next to 3 electrolytics, nearest the power connectors. If you look at the black writing on the board, you'll see all the components have labels SMC for capacitors, SMR for resistors, SMD for diodes, etc, then a number. The transistors/FETs/ICs seem to be labelled SMIC then a number. the numbers help identify which component it is.
