Abstract
A constitution of protecting a fuel delivery tube of an engine, includes: 1) an engine body including: a) a cylinder head, and b) a ladder cam bracket defining an outer wall on a side section thereof, including: i) an outer frame, ii) an intake cam bracket, and iii) an exhaust cam bracket integrated with the outer frame and holding an exhaust cam shaft; 2) the fuel delivery tube disposed beside the engine body and extending in a direction substantially along a row of a cylinder; and 3) an intake manifold made of a material free from a metal. The outer wall of the ladder cam bracket is formed with a protrusion which protrudes toward a branch section of the intake manifold in such a manner as to prevent the branch section of the intake manifold from causing an interference with the fuel delivery tube.
