To illustrate just what it is I'm trying to say about what I see, I made this
real quick:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/savatheaggie/possible/orientexpeditiondragon.jpg
Upon making this picture, I noticed what might be a whisker, or perhaps a very
long tooth. I would hope it's a whisker (which goes well with the whole
traditional chinese dragon thing) so it would be off to the side and not
preventing the dragon's mouth from closing all the way.
But again, this is all my opinion. As I was told by Troy, it could very well
just be random artwork. I kinda hope it isn't.
