## Discrepancy

ON APPROACH, THE FLIGHT CREW NOTED A VIBRATION AT 30 PERCENT POWER IN THE RIGHT (NUMBER 2) ENGINE.  THE FLIGHT CREW REDUCED POWER AND MADE A NORMAL LANDING.  THE ENGINE WAS SHUT DOWN AND TAKEN TO THE GATE.  DURING THE WALK AROUND INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE NOTED METAL FUSED TO THE ROSEBUD AND SIDES OF THE EXHAUST.
