Thoughts on running w/o front timing covers?

I haven't run front or back cover in years on my street car. Sees plenty of miles. Everything is way easier to check on.
It all comes down to risk acceptance and personal preference. I accept the risk and prefer to never have to remove them again. I do run the factory plastic belly pan.

While I'm against runing without the covers, the balance shafts key way are straight up when the crank is at TDC. Definitely can be eye ball.
