According to their site, they are only doing repairs for what they already have in house, and any en route. No more new repairs. The solder joint was like that. Funny you should mention that because I was looking at it and I see three sets of coil wires that are joined, which leads me to believe it's a Y wind (the solder joint would be the intersection of the Y).

Reason why I'm asking, I like to compare winds and those are some really good pictures.

Maybe I should have taken a better picture of the endcap, but there's really not much thickness to tap. It's maybe 1.5mm thick, if that.

Edit: I found a picture that shows the thickness of the endcap so you can see it's not that thick at all:
