Just had my tranny swapped at my buddy's shop and started checking everything at the house and I noticed on top of the 5 speed tranny there is an opening that I can see the clutch!? Is there suppose to be a plate to cover this? If any can help...I'd appreciate it.

 

yea thats an inspection hole, should be a cover to cover it up

 

ya and theres two screws to go along with it that screw into those two screw holes next to the outline of the plate that should be there

 

GOOD GOD YOU CAR IS ABOUT TO EXPLODE!!!

j/k. Actually, the risk is that any oil / coolant leak would get onto the clutch and ruin it. You should be able to take a piece of sheetmetal, cut it to shape, and a little gasket sealer to make an effective replacement. Or just pick one up another cover from someone here. In any case, I'd install one before running it more.
