That picture was 3 years ago so that could be a reason, but often I wipe down the engine bay and use degreaser on the hoses. You just have to keep up with it and don't let it get away from you!

 

Bumping this back up to post about the problem finding a cover like midwest. The new company is action auto accessories. Same guy new name.

 

Do you have a link?

 

Don't mean to bring up slightly old thread, but I've been wanting to join for awhile but haven't really had anything to contribute yet. But, right now I'm currently in the process of making my own custom intake manifold cover. Its based of the Midwest Auto one except slightly different. It has 30 degree bends down around all edges and three raised stripes centered which will be bolted on. Will post pictures when its finished hopefully within the next weekend or two.

 

Sounds awesome! Do make a new thread when you finish, though. Less people will see them if you post them here.
