They are the medium semi gloss black high flow vents from Runcool vents. A bit pricey at 165 but well worth it comes with a ton of rivets and the drill bit u need

Just curious, shouldn't they be pointing the other direction to let hot air escape? I don't see the benefit in forcing air into the rear of the engine bay.

They aren't forcing air in. They just look that way in the lighting. The Openings are in the back

Pulled the original serpentine belt with 147,000 miles on it and installed a new Gates belt. Easy job with a little PB Blaster to ease the way.
