Randy,
Congratulations on the conversion.  (Didn't I say it was easy?)  Do you have 
it hooked to a voltage regulator?  Which one did you end up with?  Does it 
have a voltage adjustment feature?  Have you run it yet?

Answer to your question... What you're seeing is shrink tubing added to 
protect the wire as it goes into the brush holder.  I cut mine a bit longer so 
as to  make for a tighter fit as it goes through the grommet in the cover. 
  That's probably a little overkill though.
