What are those big humps on the cowling above the exhaust stacks of the MK 14 (and as I've seen all Griffon spits)?

Hollywood director William Wyler was partially deaf in one ear after he passed out filming the movie Thunderbolt! He was flying in a B-24 at the time.

He had flown with Memphis Belle on 5 missions in making that film, which suggests that the B-24 was much louder inside then the B-17..
 

The "Shack" was particularly noisy, not too bad down the back after the Phase 3 mods increased the soundproofing but the pilots were inches from the prop tips.
