As you'll see in the pcap file I just sent you directly (check your spam 
folder) the priority remains intact from one system to the other. The missing 
priority appears to be related to kern messages as processed by rsyslog and is 
not related to this.

So the pcap file I just sent shows the receipt of the local7 message (with 
priority) and forwarded message from the rsyslog server's perspective. I hope 
this can show you what you need to know to get this identified.
