Are you talking about the rock shield for the switching valve?

Here is a picture. It shows the rod the selector valve rock shield cover mounts too, rock shield cover removed in the pic, but it shows where it goes. This pic was just prior to my truck being dismantled for the rebuild. The cover is like a pan/bowl that covers the valve and open at the top.

I took some pictures of my selector valve cover (removed and refinished). Earlier I attached a picture of the selector valve and where it goes.
