Some fittings that are used with "BX" have a small hole located to allow viewing "inspection" of the protective bushing.

For example, a duplex "BX" connector, a transition fitting from "BX" to EMT, etc.

The use of any fitting that works violates the code rule in 300.15.

PS: Type MC Cables have no specific rule calling for the "Redheads"
