How do I report an 1866 Alabama census record that links to an image from the 1855 Alabama Census.

When I access the following record

Jas Helton, "Alabama State Census, 1866" • FamilySearch

I click on the image link and it takes me to the 1855 state census.

Alabama State Census, 1855; https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33S7-9GTV-4KT?cc=1915984

I emailed FamilySearch help and they recommend I report it through the Feedback tab on the image.

If I try to click on the Feedback tab I get the following message:

    I believe it's the indexed date that's wrong, probably because item 3, containing the 1855 census, is between items 1-2 and 4-8, all containing the 1866 one. (In fact, only two of the 17 items on that film contain something other than 1866 census records.) In any case, the linked image definitely has the name Jas Helton, it's definitely labeled as page 10, and it definitely records inhabitants of Henry county, Alabama -- in 1855 (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33S7-9GTV-48W?i=129&cc=1915984).
