Quoted from Colsond3:

That's just a nail hammered into the playfield, as you said, to make more balls bounce to the return lane. But that shouldn't be there.

All the Silverball Manias I played as a youngster had those two outlane pins there for the chance bounce to the return lanes. If you look closely on the IPDB playfield pics you can also see them

Nice work, well done!

The flipper return lane guides below are the wrong way around. See correct orientation here:

Check that you're getting activity on pin 23 of that 4514, via pin 6 of J4. If it's always stuck high, none of the lamps from U2 will ever get selected.
