On each side of my 292s heads is a threaded 3/8" hole in the rear right next to the sensor on the divers side.  On the passenger side the corresponding hole without a sensor has a core plug and a threaded hole like the drivers side next to it.

Both holes are open as far as I can tell because it seems to be venting smoke!!!  Has this engine rebuilder forgotten something??  This can not be right.

I used a one inch 3/8" - 16 and it goes in about 3/4" before I feel it starting to stop, so if these should be blocked off I think no more than a 1/2" bolt should be used????
