Hi all,
I’m new to the community and hope this question has not been postet yet. I’m on my first dive into my MacBook Pro 2012 retina (changing termal paste, nothing to exciting) and came across one strange looking paste on the battery connection. It’s hard and looks like someone put a white chewing gum in between the nodes, just want to ask if this is normal or has any purpose. Please see the picture attached.

I send it to a repair station about 5 years ago, but startet to do repairs on my own now. Maybe those guys applied some paste there idk.
Thanks for your help anyway :)
Greetings, Sebastian
