Access ports are great idea.

Most owners or enthusiasts will be on top of their oil changes and oil quality. Racers will be no problem since they will be changing their oil very often. The daily drivers could have problems with varnish and sludge if doing extended oil change intervals while using oils that are not up to it. It would be nice to be able to look in and see if the flaps are working or poke them with a rod to detect movement.
