Project body sketch is not closed

When projecting a body to a plane the sketch is not closed (or at least is not showing a closed profile, I cant extrude or revolve it). I have used this before on many occasions and never had this problem. Tried it on 2 different models (both imported) one yesterday and one today and get the same result. Did something change with the project feature or is this a bug? 

Also this would be a great time to bring up that some type of tool to check for open paths or open sketches would be really great. I cant find the problems with this sketch just by zooming in as they must be really close. 

Sorry, I can't share the files they are both customer files. 

Thanks

Dave

Thanks  Mark, I did use those methods to find the problems, in this case there were multiple breaks in the profile which made it extra dificult. I still feel this is some kind of bug as I used project and selected body. I have used this in the past to create 2nd op stock from a profile and it worked fine. I don't see why Fusion would create a open profile when projecting a body.

Can you at least show us a picture, even just of the part where there's a problem? There are times where CAD programs struggle to find a silhouette, especially if there  fillets that goes across the outline.
