Quick question; does anyone know what the purpose of this little "vent" area is under the hood? I have seen it on multiple hoods now and it only appears on the passenger side. I was thinking perhaps it was a way to draw air in to dry out the hood frame (which we know still didn't work all that well since many are rusted out). I don't believe its there for clearance, or does not appear to be.

Thanks guys. You're right, I had no idea to search for fuel door. I just thought it had something to do with venting. Good to know what its for now though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
