Could the black line result in a details grade?

I recently bought this SLQ. It’s in a NGC slab and is graded VF 35. Everything lines up with online verify, although the listing doesn’t have a photo.

When I got my hands on it, I was surprised to see it has a black line running across the front, through the 9 to up near the Y in Liberty. It only stands out a certain angles. My second photo shows it better. I’m pretty sure it’s on the coin itself, not the plastic.

I’m wondering—could a marking like this result in a details grade? Essentially—did we get lucky this time, and a different grader might have decided details? Or is the line just part of the package that makes it an XF35?

S mint mark on a Buffalo?

The S on this Buffalo Nickel doesn’t match any 1931s that I’ve seen online. I don’t have much experience with Buffalos, does this one seem off to you? Does the S mint mark look like this sometimes? The coin weighs 5 grams.

1895O strange E

I looking closely at this 1895O Morgan. Nothing seems untoward about it, except the E in “e pluribus.” The other Es look normal. Do you think this was caused by damage? Could it mean it’s a fake? The coin is in a PCS slab.

Cloudy water during backwash?

Yesterday I was backwashing our pump, and I noticed that cloudy water was coming into the pool through one of the return jets. Closer inspection revealed that the water was dirty, with some debris as it was coming into the pool. Should there be any water coming into the pool when I’m backwashing?

Is this a DIY job?

My son took our 2007 RAV4 in today, as you can see in the report, you have to press down the pedal a bit before the car starts to stop. Would replacing calipers be a potential fix? It looks like they quoted him for new brakes, but not for the caliper? Is replacing the caliper a DIY job? I replaced a head gasket recently, so I’m not completely helpless, so just wondering how difficult this would be.

Edit: thanks for all the responses; as many of you have guessed, it's a valve cover gasket that I've replaced, not a head gasket. This job does sound doable, so I'm going to start watching videos.

One question that hasn't been answered in the replies: would these changes deal with the pedal having to be pushed so far?

I cannot believe that I am being prompted to enter a pin number to use my screen in my new RAV4. I am the only driver, I do not need any kind of security settings on whether I can use the screen. How do I turn it off?
