Gotcha. Makes sense with the CFI/SEFI being sans mechanical pump.
This is one of those parts right up there with the rear shock covers and the lower engine bay plastic skirts. Most people won't believe you that they ever existed.

My guard is blue on my pace car and missing on my cobra. I have a guard for my cobra when I replace the pump and I don't recall it being blue, it came off a 79 cobra.
1979 Pace Car #290
1979 Cobra Alternate
1986 BBF 545
1988 5.0 Turbo
Both my 78 Fairmont and 79 Z7 302s came with the cover, as did my 85 Capri RS 5.0, but none were blue. Mine all were either black, or possibly bare metal. All the covers wound up in the scrap bin.
1978 Fairmont 2 door sedan, 428CJ 4speed. 9.972ET@132.54mph. 1.29 60 foot
Replaced the FE big block with my 331/4 speed in my Fairmont, best 10.24ET @128 MPH.
1985 Mustang LX hatchback NHRA Stock Eliminator 302 4 speed best in legal trim 12.31@107 mph, but has gone 11.42@115 with aftermarket intake, carb, and iron Windsor Jr. heads.New for 2012! 331 cube SB Ford, AFR 185 heads, solid flat tappet cam, pump gas; 10.296ET@128.71 mph, 1.37 60 foot.
1979 Zephyr Z7, all original 302 auto, 2nd owner.
I bought a D9 NOS guard, last one in the country, and it was blue. I have an E2 one that is black.
There is one for sale on EBay.
I would get this if you need one. Hard to find.

Is this guard specific to the 5.0 engine? It wouldn't have come with a 2.3L NA engine?

Interesting. If I find one, I'll grab it for my Ghia. She didn't have one when I bought her.

The guard that I took off my 79 cobra parts car for my cobra was all rust but there was some faint blue paint left on it.

my 84 had a black one on it but I took it off because it was a bitch trying to reinstall it after I changed the fuel pump
I found one on an 83 5.0 this weekend past. It must be the E2 (black) version.
It looks like someone took a torch to this one to open the gap to allow it to be removed easier. Cool though. I wonder if our '79 2.8 would have had one? The PO changed the pump prior to us getting it and it wasn't there.
