Is the 79 seperator plate supposted to cover all of the bell housing? I have one but have a late model bell housing and the bottom is open.

What exactly are you asking? Do you have an automatic or a manual? If you have a manual and the seperator plate (motor plate) has an opening at the bottom it is for an automatic.

well the 302 came off an automatic so I guess its for an automatic. I have a t-5 though. Where can I pick up a manual plate?

You are going to have to get one from a salvage yard or the dealer. The salvage yard may not let you take one off an engine, and then again maybe they will but you will have to find a manual car first. The one from the dealer could be abotu $75 too, last one I bought new for an auto was that much.
