Abstract
An engine peripheral structure having a timing belt cover mounted on a cylinder block, an engine mount bracket fixed to the cylinder block through an opening formed in the belt cover, a water pump housing arranged adjacent to the bracket and integrally formed with annular rib. The annular rib is formed with an extended portion projected beyond surface of the belt cover through the opening. The extended portion of the annular rib of the pump housing is continued with outer surface portion of the bracket. The extended portion and the outer surface portion is extended along an edge portion of the opening of the belt cover. The bracket is formed with a circular rib facing to a remaining portion of the annular rib other than the extended portion. This structure improves a sealing property in a timing belt chamber defined by the belt cover, bracket, pump housing and the cylinder block.
