Given the amount of dust, dirt, sand and other fine debris your pumping through the engine bay I never recommend removing the galley cover. Apparently no one's ever looked in there with a flashlight before pulling the plugs (on a clean engine without oil in there to hide it) but you get all kinds of wall chewing debris in around the spark plugs and it's not where you can clean it out before pulling the plugs... so, it's only got one place to go: into the cylinder (Kind of like dropping in small torn up scraps of sand paper into the cylinder each time you pull a plug.... cylinder walls, rings, valves, Oh my!).... Might as well not bother running an air filter either.
