I’m putting in a starter and I have one plastic part that looks like it goes over the starter acts as a guard and a metal piece with 4 bolt holes that bolts to oil pan. Can’t figure it out. I think I may be missing a part. Can you send me a picture of complete guard? Already bolted together. I think it’s to keep gravel and stuff from getting in flywheel. Please help I’m stumped.

Good morning,

I attached the replacement procedures for both 3.8 and 5.3. You did not specify the engine size so I did both.

Can you attach a picture of this shield for me to see?
