XA: crap, is this a light leak?

[SteveM(PA)]

I've had this weird finger-looking thing on the right edge of about half of the frames in my last two rolls. I know it isn't my finger, and I've never had this trouble before. Has anyone any experience with this? All of my stuff is breaking.

Does the foam look ok on the XA? Is the 'finger' appearing on the negatives outside of the frame; between frames?

Most likely a leak.

It is within the frame, doesn't appear on the negative outside of the frame, from what I can see. The seals are pretty much deteriorated. I'll attend to that. Thanks a lot for the replies.
