timing belt cover

[sad_rocc at yahoo.com (Dan Smith)]

Blech, I hate allen keys. Not to mention the bunch of crud packed into that hole. And the lower cover looks like the upper would have to be removed before the lower to get at it, but I could be wrong. This is an 84 8v by the way. I'm trying to see if I have oil splattered around on the inside of the cover.

I always use the lower cover, rarely the top.
