I believe that's the backlight board for the display.
Nice teardown!
The glass front panel is glued firmly to the rear panel. We haven't tried to liberate it. It is possible that heat might loosen the adhesive, but it's just as possible that the heat will smoke or break the glass. As far as I know, there isn't a feasible way to get in there.
A little trick I've found:
If your iPod Video boots for a second and then goes to either a restore icon, sad iPod icon, or folder icon; pay attention to how long it takes to display the icon. If it instantly goes to the icon, a logic board is more likely the problem. If it hangs on the Apple icon for a few seconds, a hard drive cable or hard drive is more likely to be the problem.
