Quoted from Arcade:

Turns out it was a 10 amp fuse that you can barely see in my last photo above.
The fuse holder is screwed to the bottom of the head just under the power board.
Not sure if this is stock or something that was done to this game.

That sounds like stock to me. Firepower has a fuse card just below the power driver board. I think they continued with this fuse card in Sys 7 but the number of fuses varied over time.

Quoted from Arcade:

Awesome. Thanks for the info.
Something keeps blowing my fuses in this holder. They had 10 Amp fuses in them. Is that correct?
They last for about 1 game then blow. Not sure if it is a short on the playfield or not.

I don't know off the top of my head, check the manual for the fuse value. If you don't have a manual, search on ipdb.org for one. There can also be a piece of paper stapled to the inside of the backbox with the fuse values.

As far as it blowing, make sure the fuse being used is as specified (slo-blow or not slo-blow)

If it's still blowing, need to do some more troubleshooting looking for possible shorts to ground, etc.
