Pics not big enough Dave. For all we know it could be a door, fender, or trunk lid. :068:

As wide as it is, it could be a pulley. The coloured fluid is a clue I think! I'm learning  to spell in Canadian.

I knew exactly what that was. How? Back in high school I had a '57 Chevy with a 283 do the same thing. I was making a WOT pull at the top of second when the alternator fan came apart. Sounded like a gun shot when it happened. Of course the sad part was the timing....

About two weeks after I got it out of the paint shop.
