I was about to add some masking tape to the hull around the scuppers to create a venturi to help drainage (following Roadrunner's excellent suggestion) when I noticed these thread marks in the hull around the scupper tube inserts in my new AI. They're much more pronounced on the port side. This is normal, right?

I would say yes, normal.
