I think they left it clear so the Getter could be seen, that looks okay so it's still under vacuum. I've seen Getters near the Anode button before, but there wasnt such a huge clear area.

I don't like that it only contacts half the Anode button, seems like that would be a poor connection, it may also be connecting to the getter bracket at the top end, if it works then I wouldn't worry too much about it.

The Aluminized version of the 12LP4 is a 12KP4, an A suffix means a tinted face plate I think.
