This is the cover installed and painted, with out the cam button part installed. Note that I had to use cap screws, cost about 10 bucks for three stainless steel ones, to allow the cam button to work.
the two parts on either side of the cover where the paint I knocked of is because, if you don't want to lower the oil pan to let you get the cover on the two locating pin, you must install the two bolts that go through the oil pan about 3/4 tight, then install the two bottom bolts. Then gently have someone press down on the cover while you tap that area with a pipe so the slide on the pins.
Those of you that look real close will notice three cap head bolts, and the rest hex head bolts holding the cover, You have to use cap head bolts in the bottom two, because of clearance problems with the design of the cover, they cam in a bag of three when I got them from Home Depot, just used the extra as I had it.
