On to what thin air lol? Did we not look at the pictures? Two bolts in engine are missing i no that but i see nothing that fixes this block on. Or that i can see. Where wouod the two bolts be?
If you're referring to the two holes on the top of the inlet manifold they're for the plastic engine cover to be bolted down,
they have nothing to do with securing the fuel rail guard, the bolts you need should be inside the holes on the front of the guard,
if you cut the zip ties and take the thing off you will be able to see the two bolts that secure the fuel rail guard,
if it won't come away and just rattles, the nuts are probably just loose.

As above, the bolts are IN the front holes for the guard itself.
Still laughed at first reply though :smiley:
If this is a new car, and you didn't put the cable ties there, chances are the previous owner had the same issue and the bolts fell out, and has just cable-tied it.
2 new bolts. :]

Look at the X's on the front of the fuel rail guard, there's 3 holes in the front - they go in the holes, line them up with the engine block and youll see where theyremeant to go 
No you're not looking in the wrong place, you are indeed missing the two bolts the guard bolts to,
these are the two bolts you're meant to have.

Well if you have a frontend collision it won't go too well with the fuel rail not protected.
I'd cable-tie it back on, you don't want to jynx it.
As long as you're not planning on having a massive front end collision you'll be fine,
not that zip ties would protect you in that scenario anyway.

The bolts seem to sheer if you look at them, so not sure how much they'd help either

Aww maan! Was gonna go to a demolition derby tomorrow lol. Well my biggest fear is its been getting worse and if the zipties where working loose id rather not have a chunk of aluminium through my fan. But tbh zipties like dave said would do squat lol. Ill just avoid country roads and keep extra allert in rain. Cheers guys. Ill pm at some point @DaveDreads what they cost 15quid?
Couldn't tell you mate, can't imagine it would be any more that £15 quid.
