I'm going for "Found" as "Found Instance" makes perfect sense to me, as
I've put such a label on many disk (though that isn't one of mine, and
the writing isn't immediately familiar.)

It's a restoration thing. When faced with a probably-modified system
disk, you make the copy, then (if trying to reconstruct a system)
"perfect" that copy.  You don't modifiy the "original", even though it's
been previously modified.

Each of the  "as found" (and not modified after receipt,  but
probably-imperfect copies used as source are a "found instance".

Cheers!
