Upper Timing belt cover part number, 2001 Civic EX 1.7 litre
I need to buy the part in the pic as the one on the car now is broke. The hole where bolt closest to the firewall goes was cracked when I went to loosen it during a cam position sensor install.
If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

The cover is not a structural support item, there is no stress on it while the engine is running..... All it has to do is keep dirt out of the timing belt area and hang on to the engine.
If the other 2 bolt holess are still ok and the cover can't fall off (it really can't anyway), then I'd probably ignore the cracked one and reinstall it as-is.
