Which would be better to use? | | | | | Joined: May 2012 Posts: 30 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2012 Posts: 30 | | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 28,674 Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) | | Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 28,674 | Timing gear covers (the sheet metal ones) don't have oilers. Are you talking about the plate between the cam gears and the block? There are a few different separator plates, depending on the type of front motor mount you need to use.

The only difference I see is the oiler tube, maybe someone cut the end off the one that had the end open.. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 2,393 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 2,393 | That is the front engine mount plate. The oiler should not be cut off or even opened wide.
