F150 front bumper lower grill OEM

[Twgreen3]

I recently purchased an 2022 F-150 Lariat V8 with a rebuilt title. The truck had front end damage and the bumper was replaced, In the center of the bumper are three large openings where the intercooler would normally be for the EcoBoost. It does have the block heater so I believe the center trim is correct. My question is, it is a straight shot to the crank pulley and the oil filter is there supposed to be some sort of air dam in this position? Normally I think the intercooler would be blocking the engine.

On my truck it would be a straight shot. You could lean down and look through the hole on your truck to know for sure.
the below pic is taken from behind the lower grill. I have the solid version. Caveat, dealer installed the Roush supercharger kit so I am unsure if there was anything there before or not. My sons 2017 looks the same though…straight shot.

Straight shot on my 2021 5.0 as well.

I access my oil filter through the furthest opening to the right.
