Look at your ecm for me please?

If you have a 93-97 LT1 F-body take a look at your ecm for me (passengers side firewall). I need to know if you have a 2 piece plastic cover that completely surrounds the ecm. The bottom portion is what anchors it to the body. Take a pic for me if you can. I need to know because my ecm went bad do to moisture inside the case and I only have the bottom plastic part that holds the ecm down so the actual ecm case is visable on top and i think water hit it and condensated inside. am i missing a top cover? there are two unused mounting holes on my bottom cover so i think i might be. i dont want to ruin my new ecm. thanks!

ok thanks. now the top portion thats metal colored, is that the actual ecm or is that a cover that is going over the ecm? because my ecm is black and doesnt look like that.

The mount is 1 piece that covers the ECM on the side facing the front of the car and is open on the side facing the firewall. There are hole in it that aren't used. I'd assume it's designed to fit a few different cars other then the camaro?
