Brian,
It looks like you added something to the inside of the Moto Corse chain guard to fill the holes. Was it to avoid chain spatter or more for aesthetics?
David., it's the 'Foam' insert that goes along (in front of)with the 'backing plate' on the inside of the OEM cover.
Here is my thread on fitting it and the 'Slave'..

You can leave it off/out...,however I fitted mine as I explained in a post a while ago...

''Asked in another thread without an answer. Thought I'd try it in a new thread. I bought a new sprocket cover and was wondering what the foam piece in the cover was for''?
My post..
''Oops...sorry I just noticed...,yeah what Noel said., In fact you can see in some photos of the sprocket cover that the foam has been omitted
http://www.designcorse.co.uk/Billet_...Sprocket_Cover... the decision is yours.
However be aware that the 'foam' is held in place by a pressed metal 'backing plate' and the cable for the speed sensor runs behind this (actually there is a route for this cable on the inside face of the foam).
So if you want to leave out the 'foam' and want to see the sprocket (like in one of the photos' then you'd have to leave out the metal backing plate as well......this however leaves the cable for the speed sensor vulnerable to catching on the chain and sprocket as it goes 'behind' what you'd be removing.
Have a look at the photos in my thread for clarity

Hope this 'belated' answer helps.
Cheers Brian''.
