    Did you pay money for it?

    It’s nothing.

    It doesn’t belong to any Ferrari I can recognize.

    Is it a dress-up valve or cam cover for a different engine?

    Could be a valve cover for an early I-4 Fiero.

    That was my first thought it's a CNC'd valve cover from a kit car

    I doubt that's an official Ferrari part, that said, nice souvenir and neat to display in your garage.

    Cheers

    No, it's genuine. It's from the rare and elusive 388GTO

    I've heard of that model in whispers and shadows. Some say a myth, others say a Maranello folk tale....

    A slip of the tongue by The Mayor, and its secret was out, but never to be confirmed.....


    ....until now - actual, physical evidence in the form of a unique part.
