Hello Dan,
I own much documentations from the FB11 but no information about this detail...
But there is my personal and unofficial opinion:
All the Sea Fury have a shock absorber inside the rear gear leg.
However some of them have a second one fited inside the front leg and it seems that in this case, the panel is different and get this "blister".
