A timing cover is a metal shield that covers and protects the timing belt, timing pulley, and timing sprockets. It is located at the front of the engine, commonly secured with bolts or clamped down. The timing cover prevents moisture, dirt, and debris from entering and potentially causing damage to the timing belt and other timing components. When the timing cover becomes worn or cracked, it will need to be replaced to prevent future damage to the engine. If you are noticing any leaks or cracks on the timing cover or engine valley pan, it is advisable to have it inspected and replaced as soon as possible.
