Considering the B series and E series can completly different engines, i think it same to say that it wont fit. With the E series their no plastic engine cover for the i6, not sure about the v8 tho.

I may have typed my orginal post incorrectly i wasnt after the black plastic bit i was after the rocker cover is the FPV F6 or XR6T a different colour that the standard BA I6 which is a light grey aliminumim colour would be the best way i could decribe it.
