I also wondered and "worried " about that hole," holes in engines are bad". Don't know what it is/was for but it has never leaked, weeped or anything else. The local Ford shop mgr wasn't sure why it was there, nor did a couple of his older mechanics there is nothing in the shop manuals about it either, at least for the American versions of the 289-302.
