Have the chassis out and found that there are three pieces of mica on the HOT and the screws never touch the chassis. The go through a bigger hole and the threads are actually on the isolated board.

One of the mica pieces came apart trying to remove, but the other two are in good shape. I'm actually going to try the NTE Thermopads. They take the place of the mica and compound.
