I bought this ABS plastic one from my local boat supply store for $8, [The large black one] and cut a hole with my jig saw, total cost with nuts and bolts, $10

Only put on one, over my exhaust manifold, very little rain gets through it. It's 10 X 5 inches.

I don't want any rust under the hood, but with the amount of oil residue under there I don't have anything to worry about.
