Anatomy of a GN: Show Me My Engine

[i69alot]

Hi:

I'm rollin up my sleeves and doin most of the basic maintenance myself now. I'm pretty new to it, and I am asking for your help to identify some basic engine components. I've tagged them in photos here...

For most of you this will be real easy. Please identify as many as you like. Any help you can offer would be great. Help a newbie get up to speed. Thanks big time!
