How does the cowling of the Gee Bee open? Did it have to be removed all together to access the engine or could they open half of it with the rest of the cowl attached? I have scoured the internet for days trying to find an example but there are so many RC gee bees filling every page.

It looks to me that the cowling is one piece.  Since the propeller is a fixed pitch propeller, removal and reinstallation is not difficult (just an aggravation).  Remove the prop, remove the cowling.

 

Here is a good collection of Gee Bee Z pictures...
