For different pickup apps probably. You only use one.

The F body pickup tube uses the inside bolt hole.
C5's use the outside bolt hole.

Not sure about other cars...but yes,the tube flange only has one hole in it.

It will make sense when you see it.

Don't lose that O-ring either, my cam swap took another day because my father-in-law and I had to take the front end apart cause I wasn't getting any oil pressure.
