Could someone tell me if I either have the wrong cover or if I am missing a piece where the flywheel meets the oil pan? This is for a 1978 FJ40 with a 2F. See picture.

Looks like a much later cover.
You're missing #33.

As far I know this is bellhousing is from 1978. Do you think the PO had installed the wrong cover and I need to get the one that matches this year?

My rig is at the mechanic right now so I found so old pictures of the bellhousing. Per the link below, it would appear that I have the right bellhousing and an older flywheel inspection cover. Pretty sure I need a one piece cover. Does anyone have a good source for these?

It would be pretty simple to make the top half of a two-piece cover. It's just sheet metal with a small flange at the bottom. It just keeps crap out of the bellhousing/clutch.
You might also check with Crockett. He's near you and he might still have some parts.

Good point, maybe I will just make the top half, should be pretty easy.
