That looks like a BMW V8 engine cover. Very clever!

Re: homemade engine covers done!
I believe that hose is for a 94 model truck with a vortech. I just went and measured and picked it off the wall. And yes it is a bmw cover reversed

Re: homemade engine covers done!
Pretty sure it's a gates 22013, you have to cut off the enlarged end on the engine side, other than that it fits like a glove
