Dowel pin is missing in the top for the bell housing ? and a screw (plug) is missing too on the left, just beside (a little above) the cover.

should have another plug on the right side of the block, almost the same level than the other one but right corner...
These plugs are for draining purpose?

correct ...
those 2 plugs are for drilling the oil passage.
threaded plugs go in the back
when you get a block hot tanked for cleaning, it is best to have these removed and then reinstalled. in the dozens of engines i have rebuilt over the years the machine shop has always reinstalled them ... till now.
i should have noticed they were missing but i didn't.
as soon as i removed the splash shield i knew what the issue was. i called the shop and he admitted that he probably forgot.
so, is it my fault? no
but
in reality, i was the one assembling the engine and i should have noticed the missing plugs. my bad and my fault.
plugs are in, 5L of oil remained in the pan so all is good.
cheers and thanks for playing along

Sent from my iPad using IH8MUD... fun starts where the road ends
Owner got a big s^%t eating grin on his face yet????
Did the clutch get covered in oil?
Machine shop always gave us back the bits they pulled off and threw them in a bag or box..
Updates?
Can someone explain the purpose behind he Airbags and where they are? Is it something others do to this Yr/Model? Or is it because of the Plow mods or just for ride quality? Do people put these of other rough rides like the 4* series? Obviously they are not SAFETY AIRBAGS
