Looking at getting a 2nd hand one and found one where one of the lugs is broken on the front. Pictured below. Question is can I remove the underneath as it looks screwed on then use mine. So then i will have a perfect engine cover.

Do you want a cut one to run with an intake?

In answer to your question, I think the whole cover can be dismantled so you should be able to integrate 2 broken covers into one.

You can separate the two halves.
