Abstract
A rigid inverted insert for mounting on the top panel of a rigid cowing of an engine welder, which cowing has a cut away opening in a top panel for allowing access to the top opening of a fuel filler tube extending from a low fuel tank to a position adjacent the rigid cowing. The novel insert has a lower wall generally to the top panel, but substantially below the top panel wherein the lower rigid wall has a central opening surrounding the filler tube to define a peripheral gap around the tube and a soft grommet or seal is mounted in the central opening and fixed to the insert.
