Before with the plastic cover.

Another before but notice how that one bolt head is missing on the second one back. The po had it filled it in with rtv, bolt broke off. I used a drill and an ease out. great atleast the threads were'nt stripped out like i thought they'd be.

Off to the trash can with this plastic junk with 6 of the 11 bolt holes around it broken. So i guess somebody thought if they the tightened them up good enought it would stop the leaking. haha nice try!
