very clean looking board. No obvious liquid damage anywhere.

pp3v42 0.2v
ppbus_g3h 0.585v

short to ground on pp3v42.
removed L7095 - short is on system side (pin2) 0v diode mode 0ohm
spent some time removing caps on pp3v42(to oneside then checking for short then putting back)
c5120,c7099, c7098, c7095,c9510, c3740, c7102, c4820, c4650

tried injecting some voltage into pp3v42 (pin 2 l7095 with it removed)
i'm concerned about putting to much power into this rail - the schematic says 300ma max - i hit that at 0.3v what is "safe" to put into pp3v42 ?, previously shorts here have been obvious for me.

Any suggestions please ? - possibly shorted SMC ?

You can put 1-2A into it without problem just don't go over 3V, something should heat up, SMC is the first suspect.
