Same deal here on our 2010.

Looks normal for cars with wet timing chain covers vs. dry timing belt covers. Gotta break that grey RTV somehow! ;)

I'm going to inspect my Mustang for metal-eating beavers. This way we can see if this is a Nissan-specific thing.

Good to know it's normal.
But bad to know that this is Nissan's solution to a design oversight? Looks more like a shade tree mechanic quality repair, sad to learn it is from the factory.

The notch was cast in by design. The roughness on the edge is just careless deburring in an area that it does not matter!
