Steve and Bill, thanks for the tips guys! I've take note of them and will be working lastly on the wing.
I purchased a new motor mount and cowling. The cowling was repairable but I kept that for the future.
The stock motor mount had a broken bottom screw hole, a broken piece from the motor mount has literally stayed screwed-on.
Glued, lightly sanded and canopy masked and ready for priming.
