If memory serves me correctly that hole in the block is "for nada". For nada thing! I think it's a blind hole and doesn't go thru to anything.
As for the "Y"s, their purpose it to be in the system such that when both valves are closed, water still circulates thru the water pump---intake manifold so that air bubbles do not form and cause catastrophic cavitation! Don't ask how I know this.......

Thanks Steve... I was fairly sure it was an unused mounting point, but always good to have confirmation.

I also appreciate the advice on the cavitation issue, I will keep it in mind.

The plan is for the engine to go back in on the 21st, so there should be updates to my main rebuild thread soon.
