unless the car is really old or the engine is in really bad condition (ie, deteriorating rubber seals for the electrical connections) I don't bother covering things. But I do avoid thing like alternator, spark plugs, battery, the major electrical items. you can use aluminum foil to cover any suspect connectors and the alternator (don't use on the battery), foil is easier to keep in place and much easier to use.
