A covering device for an internal combustion engine shortens the harness used for driving fuel injection valves (and thus minimizes resistance, noise and voltage drop) and improves access to components for fuel leakage checking. Opening portions 20A, 20B are disposed on timing chain covers 1A, 1B. A solenoid driver 360 is located on a front surface of the opening portions 20A, 20B. A harness 361 passes through the opening portions 20A, 20B and is then connected to respective fuel injection valves 400 to 450. Moving or detaching the solenoid driver 360 permits a sensor portion 710 of fuel leakage checker 700 to pass easily through the opening portions 20A, 20B and get near respective fuel injection components.
