Well I for one use just two small simple hinges to open the engine
cover and lean it against the 3rd bench in the GB or just turned 180
deg. on the Rampside (which is not so nice for show-off).

Most of the nice FCs I saw in USA had an additional bar like that of
the Corvair cars to hold it open, like the beautiful Rampside of James Law:
