Im trying to figure out what's missing underneath the front bumper on my 5k, i was told it was a lower timing belt cover, or could it be something else, I finally took some pics of my car, i hope the picture of the front end will give some insight. Any help/suggestions is appreciated<ul><li><a href="http://community.webshots.com/user/skip2949">http://community.webshots.com/user/skip2949</a</li></ul>

Seriously, the photo angle doesn't let us see up under the bumper, so here's a way to check:

The timing belt is a wide thin flat belt with small teeth on the inside that wraps around the crank pulley. If you can see any part of the belt, then you are missing a cover.

A quick visit to Le Junque Yarde will cure this, and Krylon gloss black is my coverage of choice.

Your 5K engine compartment looks identical to mine. Could you post some more close-up shots so I can trace the vacuum lines and get mine right, or better yet, tell me the black line goes from .. to.. , the white line goes from... to...
Many thanks,
