Comments from Submitter:
I acquired a set from the original buyer, who had opened the box, but all the internal parts bags were still factory-sealed. I built the set, determining that all parts were present, displayed it for a while, then unbuilt it, bagged it, and stored it. I just did an inventory verification prior to selling, and discovered these discrepancies.
• The printed inventory, the illustrations in the instructions, and the parts in my set are all 4151b, rather than 4151, so I suspect that it is the preferred/intended part. and 4151 should be considered the alternate.
• The printed inventory says there are 10x 3660, but I only have 9 (after building and unbuilding), and I triple-checked the instructions and only 9 are used in the build. That isn't a part that TLG is in the habit of including extras of.
• The printed inventory says there are 10x 4073, but only 8 are used in the build, and I only have 8 in my stored set. I honestly can't say for certain whether it came with extras (and it was years ago, so I don't remember 100% for certain whether I kept extra parts with the set when I built it), but either way the official part count should be 8, and the other 2 should either be listed as extras or they shouldn't be listed at all.

I just checked a lot of used and a few new copies and did not find any evidence
for
in this set. Moreover, the set inventory was submitted with Source: Parts List
and 4151b was already introduced at that time (set was released in September,
2006; part 4151b was added to the BL catalog in August of that year). I'm
therefore going to remove 4151 from the inventory after accepting your requests.
It can always be added again if we find proof that it was included in this set.
Example of an early copy with 4151b:
