Good eyes, that appears to be an assembly seam, outboard of the wheel wells. The Iranians copied that seam but covering it with putty or duct tape, per the video, is just comical.

If they had the real deal the seam would be flawless like the photo.

BTW, look at the width of the aileron on the trailing edge of the wing. Compare that with the size and location of the ailerons on the video fake.

Thanks.

Or, they 'disassembled' the aircraft for transport and were unable to reassemble it correctly and used the putty and tape to hide the seams.

Typically, flying wings use three sets of controls: Flaps, elevons and drag rudders.

The flaps are inboard and the outboard controls mix elevons and drag rudders.

What you are calling 'ailerons' are the outboard controls. (elevons/drag rudders)

Comparing this photo to the 3-view, it looks to me like the controls in the Iranian match those in the 3-view.
