Protect the chainstay from damage caused by the chain smacking it. Nothing to fear.

Thanks everyone, you’re unbelievable!
My first thought was some sort of welded patch. There’s a bit of rust on other parts of the bike so thought maybe it chewed a hole into this bit or something.

Chainstay slap guard. There to stop the chainstay getting damaged. Better to have than not have.

Chainstay protector for chain slap. Some are metal others are plastic or even a sticker.

Don’t uncover the hole!
Frame protector, don’t take it off
