Is this normal, or am I really that sick?

One more question for slant six owners. How many of you have a slant six with the heat shield over the oil pump and distributor like the very greasy one in this photo? This is the only slant six that I've ever owned that came from the factory with one. Very stock 1974 Duster. Anyone? Sorry for the low quality photo.

I can't say if all slants came with one from the factory. Many have been removed for access to other things and never put back on. Also many have been broken off.
