Default oil galley plugs and camshaft end plug

I have been reading through alot of posts and seen the oil galley plugs come up for different situations, but have not seen a post explaining where they should be. I have a used block, and it is my first ls1, and I am not sure if all the oil galley plugs are in or not. Is there a site that shows where they go? Or a manual?

Also in the block I have there is no plug or cover for the back of the cam to hold it in place. Is the plug a press in, like a freeze plug or is there a cover for it that bolts in place?

Any part numbers for would be great also, or where to get these things.

Is there a online microfiche anywhere so that we can look up some of these things, if not I think it is a good idea.

Thanks for any help

In the front there is the cam retainer and the gear, that's it, nothing else except the front cover. The back has the rear cover. There is not a cam plug, just the cover on the back of the block.
I bought a Corvette parts CD on Ebay for $8. It has the parts but the drawings are not nearly as clear as the ones above. BigTex, where did you get those great pictures??

Oil passage plugs, yes, there are several. I think that they are metric threads so you probably won't find that at the hardware store, I bought all of them from the Chev dealer.

SDPC just sent me all my oil galley plugs and freeze plugs.

Putting them in this afternoon. #12 from those pics (bottom pic--GM #12573460) goes at the rear of the motor under the rear cover. #28 (first pic--GM #09427693) is under the front cover. Obviously.

I don't see the freeze plugs though. Coolant drain plug---GM # 12561663 and 3 oil galley sealer bolts....GM # 11588426.

4 head dowels and 2 tranny dowels as well.
