I'm wondering if anyone has any experience BSELing a Xeon 5420? Do you only have to cover pin BSEL1 (H30)? Can you provide a pic or diagram of the pin(s) to be covered?

Thanks, that helped! After reading that and looking at the intel diagrams, I confirmed that you need to cover both H30 and G30 for the BSEL to work.

I've made a little diagram for anyone that might need it:
