Engine Bay Questions...need help!
Hey guys, I took a look at my engine bay today, and was wondering if this is supposed to look like this...on the M112 motors, was there supposed to be a cover to this!?? (the dipstick area) I think its missing.

more than likely it popped off when you took the engine cover off..

but yes, there is supposed to be a cover over that with a lock tab in it to keep it from coming off so easily.

its probably "ok" for now as it would be hard for somthing to fall in when your hood is closed and it seems unlikely for the fluid to come spurting up, but i would definitly get a new one as soon as you can.
