    My truck had CCV filter on it. I didn’t delete it but I did replace. My mechanic said it’s probably what started my oil leaks. My truck doesn’t drip but seaps some everywhere 😂. Might look into the delete for that. Also the cp4 disaster kit would be a good idea. I already did all the deletes

Get some nice anodized aluminum block off plates , they aren't that expensive. Or clean up those covers and spray them with some high heat paint to make them look presentable.
