Thanks for asking, I forgot to report back....

No pinhole....it's a brand-new camera...!!! 😊😊😁😁😊😊😎😎

Fantastic! When I turned in the 18-55 at the service center, the rep stated I'd get a refurb. When the generic brown box showed up it had a new boxed 18-55 inside. They may have some selection criteria on certain warranty returns that alows them to pull a new or refurb for replacement.

It's a bit of a mystery methinks, just how Canon's criteria work, but I'm very grateful...!!
