Converted to electric fuel pump? If your old mechanical fuel pump still bolted to the engine (not doing anything) you can remove the pump and fit a blanking cover plate for that finished look

Nissans came with an ALLOY blocking plate that fits the A-series engine



Nissan part number 16420-E0100 $16 USD. Unfortunately now NLA from Nissan North America

buy from Bprojects

Here's another pic of the factory alloy cover plate installed on an A12




That Aussie price of $18.75 is a bargain. But what if you are like me and like to reuse instead of buy new?

If sourcing from a wrecking yard, look for EFI vehicles like this:
* 1979-1983 Nissan S110 200SX with Z20E/Z22E
* 1980-1986 Nissan 720 Pickup with Z22 carby
* 1987-1989 Nissan N12 Pulsar with E16
* 1987-1989 Nissan B12 Sentra with E16I
* Reportedly also a few 620 Pickup with L20B came with electric fuel pump and this blanking plate

The bolts I think are M8, 12mm long. Washers are M8. The fuel pump studs are unscrewed from the block and the short bolts put in
