Nice! I've always loved the red crinkle finish of Ferrari valve covers.
Here's a couple more. I love the mechanical look of American V8's of the sixties. Here are a couple pics I took while at Barrett-Jackson this January. Two Ford 427's in two very different configurations:
Jack Roush built 427 in a Superformance GT40. 560 horsepower
Engine bay of Carroll Shelby's personal Cobra. CSX3015. One of two built. 427 side oiler, twin paxton, 800 horsepower.

Ken's twin setup is two HKS 3240's ...his motor is fully built with a 3.4 liter HKS stroker kit.
Tony's lists his single as a "GTR70" but when I just looked for trim info, all I could find is him saying it's an old school T88H ...so I'm not sure if that's up to date. If I find out otherwise I'll let you know. His car is absolutely pristine and he's managed to push it to a 1/4et of 10.05 @ 140+.

I had a '67 XKE Roadster a while back and always loved it ...and thought the engine was a work of art, especially considering the engine was first made in 1948. I wish I could find this one gorgeous photo of the engine, but this is what I found for now:
