The right side of this photo is the main body of the gas generator. The darker grey toward the left
is the gas generator injector assembly at the forward end of the combustor;
note the igniter port plug at right (with
the red tag). The larger, almost square component is the gas generator
injector fuel inlet tee housing (which is at far left, connected to the gas generator ball valve.
Although I'm uncertain what the line is just clockwise of the 9:00 position, I
do have a detailed photo of it.
The way the gas generator is mounted on the engine, it is difficult to get a
clear view of the injector assembly, but it is more readily visible on F-1 engine F-4026, the
Center's outdoor F-1 engine. Also see my photos of the Rocket Center's F-1 rocket engine gas generator
injector display.
