all that's behind the plate is the rear can journal and the main bearing cap and crank below.
no freeze plugs or pipe plugs.

Forgive me for not responding earlier; I've been having computer problems and couldn't access my pictures until today.

How's this?

A bit of a revival and not to hijack, but does the seal just slide around the crank when that plate is removed?
