We still need more answers before we can ascertain whether a repaired hole can be detected under x-ray. After seeing Norm Botoshe's chip drilled through the inlay, I wonder whether Gene's chip which I x-rayed, was also drilled through the inlay and not through the rim & then repaired. If the drill was through the inlay and new inlays were made and attached, no plug was taken and no hole was filled. This may explain why the rim of the chip looks so perfect. It never was altered.
