Anyone who's done a bare metal restoration on unwrecked original late 122? 120-130

Did you find any factory body filler (bondo stuff)? Specifically under the tail lights, near the reflectors? I know they used lead in earlier cars (PV544s), but not sure about a '67 122. All the primer layers look right, as well as the base paint coat, followed by top gloss coat, but there is a small dent between that reflector and tail light which cracked and exposed a thin layer of plastic body filler. the area around that blemish is faded exactly as all other parts of the car.

Not that it matters, as I'm not planning to make any changes to the patina. Just curious..
