Description

FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a first embodiment of an engine cover according to our new and ornamental design, showing the engine cover on an engine;

FIG. 2 is a front perspective view thereof, showing the engine cover in isolation;

FIG. 3 is a rear perspective view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a top plan view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a bottom plan view thereof;

FIG. 6 is a left side elevation view thereof;

FIG. 7 is a right side elevation view thereof;

FIG. 8 is a front elevation view thereof;

FIG. 9 is a rear elevation view thereof; and,

FIG. 10 is a top plan view of a second embodiment of an engine cover according to our new and ornamental design.

The broken line showing of an engine in FIG. 1 is meant to illustrate environment for the engine cover and thus forms no part of the claimed design. The broken lines between the solid and broken line portions of the engine cover are boundaries of the claimed design, and as such, form no part of the claimed design. The broken lines beyond the boundaries of the claimed design are portions of the engine cover that form no part of the claimed design. The black areas on the second embodiment of the engine cover in FIG. 10 are meant to indicate flat surface ornamentation having a contrasting color from the remainder of the engine cover. The second embodiment of the engine cover is identical to the first embodiment of the engine cover in all respects, except for inclusion of the flat surface ornamentation as shown in FIG. 10.

Claims
