I replaced the broken speedo cable on my '78 L-82 w/auto trans, and saw this cover plate on the side next to the speedometer gear. Does anyone know if there is something needing service inside? THANKS!

Thanks Joel for the answer and for adjusting the photo. The trans is not broke so I won't fix it!
