So, other than demonstrating your lack of exposure to different
engines, what's your point? Of the 34,000+ hits for "push rod cover,"
less than 15% even contain the term "VW". Fewer still actually use the
term in relation to a VW part. The first two hits go to an autoparts
store site with "no parts found" for a "push rod cover grommet." I'll
admit I have no clue what that is on a VW, but it's in reference to
aircooled engines. Most hits are search engine spam. There is a hit on
one small picture at thesamba, which might be the pieces under
discussion. Otherwise, the only reasonable hits on Google's first page
of results point to a VW _brake_ push rod cover.

I'll give you that Google does produce a total of 5 (!) hits for "push
rod tube cover," and all are related to VW.
