The tops of the pistons can be visually inspected 360 deg.

One can insert the camera probe between the runners and above/below the fuel rail inspecting all sorts of items under the plenum. You can even watch the secondaries function as you like hot wiring Pin C17 with a Pin Probe as described by Marc Haibeck Secondary Operation without removing the Plenum
And You can use the inspection camera to look at brake pads, under the dash in places you can only stick a screw driver poking the camera probe between wiring to look beyond wiring, inspection of front cover for leaks, inspection of water pump for leaks, inspection of front seal, inspection for bolts dropped and caught between headers, checking smoothness of secondary operation, inspection of vacuum hoses under plenum, inspection of wiring under plenum, and if you want you can inspect inside your differential case after you have drained the fluid (same with transmission, and oil pan), and especially inspection for those very hard to find oil leaks around the OPRV (Oil Pressure Regulating Valve Cover)
