Engine appearance cover
I just discovered today that one of the bolts on my engine cover (really just fuel filter cover) is missing it's "beauty cap." Anyone here that removed yours and have it sitting around, want to sell it or gift it to me?

I should have 2 or 3 laying around my garage. I'll check tomorrow. I removed my cover and the studs, but left the bracket to hold my heater hose. I had bought an extra cover on Ebay, when I cracked mine, that came with extra nuts. One of the original studs was broken off in the nut when I got my truck.

I welded two long flat head screws on mine then put wing nuts on with plastic spacers painted black. I check em for tightness each oil level ck/fuel top off. Works like a champ.

Question: Can the older 7.3 engine cover from the OBS and I think the early SDs fit? The one that opens to access the fuel filter without having to unbolt something.

The one I posted is from the 1993-1997 7.3 PSD trucks. The one you posted should be the one you have for 2002.
