Juergen,

The key to the effectiveness of the described method is to force the  
hot air around the cylinders fins through the Rotax air baffle.  
Blowing hot air through the two other holes of the XS Europa cowling  
would be a lot less effective to heat the engine. It also would mean a  

higher temperature under the cowling and possibly too much heat on the  

engine electronic components.
