Ext. Alt. Rotax
I am wondering if that cowling would host the external alternator of the 912. If so, then it might be worth to have a closer look.

Does this cowl use an aft piano hinge?
Will there be an oil tank access door?

There is an oil door and the plan is to mount it with the same hinge mounts as the drawings, however, you can easily do something different if you want, such as 1/4 turn fasteners, which are fairly easy to install.

Beautiful! Now I would love to see what is underneath that cowling! There's a UL Power engine hiding?
