Wondering if there is a dust cover out there that fits a 2004r trans with a gen 1 SB with the Delco starter on the passenger side and the 168 tooth flexplate? Also looking for a gasket that won’t leak.

I just installed a plastic generic inspection cover on the 442. Got it at Summit. You have to cut out for the starter and it is not a perfect fit, but when installed it does the job fine. Only took about 1/2 hour to trim and install.
I found rubber valve cover gaskets a Summit last time I built my motor. Had a steel core and was very rigid. I have one on each side of my valve cover spacers and no leaks, no sealer.
I don’t have part #’s sorry, you’ll have to do some shopping.

I have heard that a dust cover for the 85-90 G body V-6 may work.
