Real time help - mystery hole in bed

[Pitter Patter]

Can anyone tell me if this hole should be here? 1981
Need to know if I should reproduce this for the new bed? Thanks in advance

Would be approximately here on the top side

I say if it looks like it was punched, keep it, if drilled then skip it.

Drain hole. One on each side of the heater.

Thanks so much! Mine only had one on the passenger side because some PO did this high quality patch on the driver side.

The condition of the body makes it impossible to figure out what was original and what’s a mod or cover up so it’s a slow process. Lots of research. Appreciate you all for your help making this thing correct.
