Thanks for posting that crop. Of course there is a groove on the neck but look again at the windvane. There wouldn't be a groove there if it wasn't for many layers of paint. That's the mask line.
The one that I have marked "very light groove?"
There's certainly some indenting due to paint layers and masking, but I also feel there is an actual groove there as well from the original lathing. The copper paint isn't thick enough to cause that much of a groove. If it were that thick, it would have filled in those dents and imperfections and seam lines everywhere else on the copper painted areas.

It's not just a mask line. It's a groove.
I'm 100% certain because it's on the master and the castings before they were painted.
You are the expert, sir.:thumbsup Didn't mean to stir the pot on this point, just wanted to make sure this project can be as spot-on as possible. Now how about some photo reference of that master? All I have is this one:
