Unlike the OEM one which lets water in when it rains we have incorporated a drain channel so water cannot get into the engine when it rains
That is good. I was going to say that if it is sealed you'd have a huge problem with the heat. Looks great!! Your work looks outstanding.

They will eventually be offered for sale.

We need to do a little bit more development to make it into a production unit.

As soon it is ready we will post details.
