There's also something odd on top of the landing pad of that leg itself

Here is nearly the same view from a different angle.
Notice the LM landing radar antenna shield near the descent engine

In the earlier picture view, the radar antenna shield supports appeared

in parallel with the touchdown probe, making it look like a second
probe.
