I have a BL-65 that has been modified to a C-85 with the long mounts. One of my valve covers has a hole in it due to wearing by one of the cowl fasteners. At first I thought someone had put too long of a fastner in, but that is not the problem. The front part of the lower cowl is attached with either zuse fastners or sheet metal screws (sharp points) and the rear is mostly machine screws. Is this the correct setup for the fastners?
Any ideas on how to fix this. My worst fear is the cowl was not made right when the modification to long mounts was made.
Can I somehow put a pad between the cowl fastner and the valve cover?
I am thinking of moving the nutplate down about an inch. This would get it out of the way from rubbing on the valve cover.
