Question Ports above spark plugs. What are they?

Hey,

I have a 1991 RX7 that I purchased with no motor. I have a replacement motor and I am reassembling it. I have figured out the 4 oil injection lines (2 to block, 2 to Intake ports) but there are 2 ports above the spark plugs that look just like the oil injection ports on the block. I cannot tell from the Haynes manual what goes in there and don't see any parts in my collection that look like they would go there.

So, my questions are: What are these ports function?
What does the part that goes in them look like?
What are they called?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Ron Madurski

Turbo engine right? On the N/A, those ports are blocked off.

They are the knock sensor ports. See attachment
