Leaking CPR?

[Cmr446 at cs.com (Cmr446@cs.com)]

True, I was trying to describe the plate, or blcok that's bolted to the 
engine block, that the cpr mounts to. I thought maybe the plate blocked off an 
opening or something where it's attached to the engine.  About the only reason I 
could think of why it was still there on a CIS-e engine.
