I'll start.

I'm sure there's many other things wrong with this image as well, but it looks like the exhaust feeds into the transmission ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

I'll go next - top mounted blower injector has unnecessary side ports that provide no benefit from being exposed above the engine block. Typically, they are used as a ram intake to increase horsepower.

The front axle appears to come out of the differential at two different heights

๐Ÿ˜‚ I completely missed that. Good catch!

Well that's because the front differential is cracked, obviously..

Indeed. If anything, the sideways airflow of driving down the road would probably pull something of a vacuum on those side ports, basically defeating the purpose.
