mikem0re I hereby nominate you for photos of the year. Very very very interesting stuff. Now we need to reverse engineer what the hell they exactly did, but this is way above and beyond the recommendations on the SIB.

If your acoustic cover is back on then don't worry about it, however if it is still off then would you mind snapping a few more photos showing just where the wire starts and finishes including shots of the label on the wire. Also is that wire going to the part labeled heater? It's a little hard to tell in the photos. It would be ideal if you could remove the CCV valve from the cover and photograph it from all angles and show what that heater looks like, etc. Also a couple of wide shots would be great too, showing the differences between the two sides of the engine.

Great job again. Thanks.
