Default Air Cond Pump Covers (where to find?)

I found the chrome cover for the body of the pump, but I'm sure I saw a seperate piece that covers the rotating assemby (pulley, etc.) somewhere.

The body cover I found at Ecklers site and it's largely cosmetic, but the other piece covers the rotating part of the pump and it shields the rest of the engine from (oil) spray flying through the engine compartment.

Anybody have this in their catalog(s) or know of a site?

Thanks for all help,

Yes, that would describe it. It's a seperate piece from the body of the pump. It forms a perimeter around the outside of the rotating portion of the pump (the pulley and the piece it is attached to.

Most of what I have found on website are pulley covers (usually for the March system). I thought what I was looking for was made by Mr. Gasket, they make the piece that covers the pump body... I cruised their pdf catalog and couldn't find it.

Guess I've never seen one like that might be something you can fabricate.

I checked the Mr. Gasket catalog and could only find the one that wraps around the back of tyhe pump, but not the front (rotating) portion of the pump assembly.

Does what you have install around the larger portion of the pump (closest to the firewall) or the part that contains the puley?
