Mystery Bolt Hole
Putting things back together. This hole appears not to be used to bolt down the Rat's Nest. What is it used for????

I want to say there’s a tab on the ground harness bracket that sits in a hole in that area?

The coil frame bolts to the rats nest frame. The ground on my harness was attached to the second hole from the right. Again, the reason I ask is that when the rats nest frame is installed, this hole is covered and I won’t be able to get to it.

That one is not being use, don’t worry about it. They probably keep it simple on the housing cast so they look the same front and rear.

You don't use that one. The Frame for the Rat's nest covers it where the coils get installed
