Perhaps the 5th and 6th ports? I would expect them to both either be in or have been removed. I don't know why there would only be one.

The real question is, Do you know what you are talking about?

Post a picture but it sounds like you are referring to the 5th 6th port actuators. If you have a Haynes manual or have downloaded a copy of your year FSM then that's all you have to do is go to the proper section and you will know what you are looking at. If you do not have a Haynes manual or have not downloaded a copy of the FSM then I recommend you do so.

Flap = Cylindrical sleeve? Is that what you mean?

If it is then the other one may still be in the 6th port of the engine on the opposite side.

^^^^ pics would make it much easier. Definitely get yourself a FSM.
