That rear cover also incorporates machining to oil the main shaft support bearings when the ZF is run inverted.

So the real -1 (not the 1.5 I have) had that rear cover. I decided to to a search for Mangusta ZF Transaxles I started looking through the search result images and the first decent one I saw was in a post by Mike Drew on the gt40s.com forum:
http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt4...draining-oil-zf.html
Which shows his (I think -2) trans fitted with a Mangusta rear cover. " Lloyd was good enough to swap my Pantera cover out for a Mangusta cover, which incorporates a fill plug." So apparently the parts are interchangeable. BTW Mike is in the process of building a GT40.
