Abstract: A side part structure of an engine having cylinders lined up in a front-and-rear direction of a vehicle body, is provided. The structure includes auxiliary machinery disposed in a front part of one side wall part of the engine in a vehicle width direction, a fuel system component disposed in a rear part of the side wall part, an intercooler disposed between the auxiliary machinery and the fuel system component, and a first protector member disposed between the intercooler and the fuel system component. At least a front part of the first protector member is formed so as to be separated from the side wall part as it extends rearward. A front part of the intercooler is disposed rearward of the auxiliary machinery and the intercooler is disposed along the first protector member so as to be separated from the side wall part as it extends rearward.

Abstract: An intake passage includes: a main intake passage provided with a throttle valve and extending from one side toward the other side along a cylinder bank; and a bypass passage provided with an EGR valve and connected to a part of the main intake passage located toward the other side with respect to the throttle valve. The bypass passage extends from a branch of the main intake passage toward the one side and then turns back and extends toward the other side. The EGR valve is located in a part of the bypass passage extending toward the other side and overlapping with a part extending from the branch to the one side.

Abstract: Disclosed is an engine which comprises: an engine body comprising a cylinder head and a cylinder block; an inlet duct attached to the engine body; and a fuel system component disposed between the engine body and the inlet duct, wherein the inlet duct is disposed on a vehicle forward side of the engine body when mounted to a vehicle, and wherein the inlet duct has: a fuel system component-corresponding portion located in a zone overlapping the fuel system component when viewed from the vehicle forward side, and a region located adjacent to the fuel system component-corresponding portion and having a lower rigidity than the fuel system component-corresponding portion.
