Seeing two frame pics, one with engine inside and one bare, I note at least one material difference between the two. The bare frame has an extra bracket on the r/h side (circled in red), while the mounted frame not only doesn't have the bracket, but also has no mounting points / holes for one. Any ideas? Not just what the mount might be for; but why it would be on the one, and so obviously not on the other.

Sorry, I shouldn't even be paying attention to such trivia.
bare frame, bracket circled in red

frame w/ engine, no bracket

The missing bracket is a mount for the intake solenoid, and the outer air box cover.
