adding oil to '23 Rebel G/T - do I really have to take off the plastic intake cover?

And what's involved in that??

Are you referring to the engine cover? If so, you don't need to take that off to add oil. To remove the cover, you pull up from the front of the cover and it should pop off some posts.

Ok thanks.

I removed the engine cover on my '16 shortly after I bought it. The cover sits on a shelf in my garage.

Me, too!
No need for that dang cover on there... just traps in heat and does nothing for the engine.
Leave it open imho.
