Mine has a piece of 10mm aluminium plate with a couple of  big holes in it. This is sandwiched between the original filter and the crank case with some longer bolts holding it all together. I don't know how much stiffness it adds but I think that possibly the effect of filling in the open side of a box could be greater than the stiffness of the plate on its own (maybe wishful thinking?) In any case it can't do any harm!...

I would think that aluminium would be lighter than steel and easier to shape.

Are you going to be at Wiscombe?
