I made the original plate a bit longer to cover up the gap to the front plastic part that was there with the original model. 
Now all of those screw terminals can be covered as well if the plate is mounted  as the far to the right as the cutout allows.   

Thanks to @ErickSaint_575320 for the original model!  

I made two versions: 

  1.  one which reaches up to the plastic part and 
  2.  one slightly longer which can be tugged underneath that plastic part at the front. 

The picture with the plate being mounted shows the longer version. 
As you can see, I tugged the left side of it underneath the plastic part while the right side of it rests on top of it. I then used some double-sided tape to fixate the plate at that spot to avoid any possible rattling. You can also tug both parts underneath the plastic part though.  
I also put some mosquito net on top of it across the cutout for the fan which is secured by the four mounting screws to avoid that small stuff like rests of filament, cathair etc will be pulled in.  

The picture with the longer white plate and the shorter black plate side by side should show the difference of the length between the two models. 
I only printed the first three layers of the models, just for being able to show them side by side. 
The final plate will be thicker of course and has those two poles for mounting it to the aluminum rail. 

The picture with the longer white plate and the shorter black plate on top should demonstrate the difference of the length and how far both plates reach up to the front.
