I'm going to go out on a limb here, but I think it's the grey area between the side boxes(see red arrow), or the right hand end(can't tell for sure as your picture shows only part of it). you might try filling in the gray area with the same color as the boxes, and maybe also extending the color out a bit on each end, if painting the middle doesn't work. Still looking for the sand cap.

Happy Rails,

It looks like it could be on the panel that has your engine side numbers on it..it's the same height as the panel; you might look into that..or maybe the backside of the cab..maybe it wraps around the edge a little?

hmmmmm. I'll give it a shot. The thing that stumps me is that it doesn't do it on the other side
