    Without actual testing no one can say Yes or No. From the age it’s a good guess it is and until proven otherwise treat it like it is.

    Good answer. At the minimum I would expect it in the door gaskets and firebox area. Which will be flying if someone starts busting the thing up :)

    I'm sure the pads inside the panels are..I just can't imagine them being anything else.
