I can't really tell... I'm not near the machine right now... and the
picture is not good enough to figure that out.

The cover does have a lip on the PSU side of the case. There are no
screw holes, just the latches. On mine, the latches (which are
plastic) seem to have been broken off, so that's probably why you
don't see them. They're black on black in a lossy photo, so easy
to miss...
