Noticed these two open holes that have threads. Anyone else missing these screws or is this by design?

If so, what screw do I need?

those look like there is a fastener in them,, just coming from the opposite side. I'd leave em, I don't think they rattled out.

Maybe those are reverse threaded fasteners or simply a plug to fill an unused void? I really don't think you are missing anything OP, but then again what the hell do I know.

According to the 20 other threads about this. There was never anything in those holes, they're just there

Those are used on different model vehicles that use this same engine.
