I do have an extra 37-116 chassis and if it has the cover abd it fits, I'll use it.

It won't fit. The 38-690 tuner chassis is smaller than the 37/38-116 chassis.

I've never seen a cover on a 38-690 tuner chassis. It doesn't really need one as it sits on a wood shelf. On the other hand, the 37-116 chassis only rests on front and back supports, and so most of the chassis is exposed at the bottom, hence the chassis bottom cover.
