It probably gets hidden by time or something . . .

Excellent! Thank you. Now I can flux on people with my new performance mod!!
Haha, I am sure you could start a business showing people what their mods would look like before they purchase it

Also...

Do you reckon it'd be worth painting the valve cover red?
It is a redtop, but people can't seem to tell very well 🤷♂️

Would it be worth it? That'* a matter of opinion. My opinion is "no".

Besides, the red might interfere with the flux capacitor, and you don't want that.

It looks like your FoMoCo flux capacitor is leaking flux juice. You can't leave them in magnetic trays too long or that will happen every time. Last time that happened to me I had to order more flux juice from Alpha Centauri. It took forever to arrive, even with Prime.
