Hopefully someone kept Bob's skull and anything else too sensitive out of their sight, at least.

I think Harry is oblivious but not that oblivious. I am sure his most sensitive things are out of sight.

It's in the lab. Bob went into it at least once.

Then there is the lab!  Actually Bob's scull can be explained away in terms of archology since it is over a thousand years old.  Depending of course how closely the inspectors want to question why Harry has it.  However we know from before that Harry keeps some very interesting things in his lab.  Though I cannot remember the book, he says when he can afford it he even has some radioactive material for his experiments. That might be a bit harder to explain, however I wouldn't be shocked it Harry managed to shield the lab from the inspectors.  It's still a basement of a basement, accessible only through a trap door in the floor.

Bad Alias:
Harry had depleted uranium, which is "weakly radioactive" and illegal to own without a license. I'm not sure what weakly radioactive means. I know granite is also radioactive, but we use it for countertops.

Generally speaking, it's legal to own human bones in America.

I doubt Harry has collected a lot of illegal stuff yet.

It is, you can buy them from "The Bone Room."  I have bought them for training cadaver dogs.  They are expensive, usually or did when I bought them years ago come from places like China.  Old cemeteries are dug up to make room for something else and the bones are sold.  However in recent years I believe that China stopped selling the old bones, or I have heard that.

I am not sure what weakly radioactive means either, lots of people have granite counter tops, but not many have "depleted" uranium.
