Engine cover maybe? I'd strap it to a dyno just for kicks...

Speaking of Alpina BMWs, I saw this fairly rare B3 3.3 a couple of summers ago while on vacation in Krakow (absolutely beautiful city BTW)

yeah, but the cover from the B10 engine and the X5 engine is quite different. The B10 cover is a lot shorter and it has a different front end....
