I don't remember if the lump was good news or bad, I'll take a look tonight and get back with you. Along time ago I posted pictures of this, but it's been so long ago I don't even remember if it was on RCU.

If you look at the picture (provided I can figure out how to post it) you see a suspect wheel. The bumps where the trailing edge of the blade meets the wheel is the give away that can be seen looking up the tail pipe. If that area is smooth you probably have a good wheel.
