Gilles is that a pic of a 2007 Box IMS flange? If so that means you can somewhat inspect the IMSB of a 987 without taking the engine apart to see/remove the IMSB?

PJG, the picture of this IMS cover is from an '07 Cayman S (3.4), you can remove the cover to inspect and replace the seals.
However, since the diameter of the bearing is larger than the hole on the case you need to disassemble the entire engine to replace the IMS bearing on all the later engines...
I think this is called German engineering or something like that...
However, it seems that with the larger bearing, the failure rate seems to be smaller on the later engines.
