Abstract

A cover for an internal combustion engine assembly that includes a pressurized fuel accumulator feeding fuel to at least one injector is provided, the cover defining, with a cylinder head, a volume designed to receive the common rail and the injector. The cover borders a first sub-volume, designed to receive the injector, and a second sub-volume separated from the first sub-volume by a separation wall of the cover and designed to receive the common rail. The cover includes a frame to be fitted on the cylinder head and a cap removably fitted on the frame. The separation wall is designed for the passage of a fuel connection connecting the injector to the common rail.
