Exhaust covers on diesel engines are used to stop the engine from running backwards when it's being lugged down so far as to stop the engine. It was possible for the engine to kick and start again running backwards. Oliver used to require them on all of their diesel engines. It's in their shop manuals. Other manufacturers may have had the same requirement. Stopping water from entering the enigne was a secondary benefit.
