The holes are there in the stock TB, their just a lot bigger. Most people who port stock TBs use smaller copper tubing, and fill around the holes with putty, then smooth them out for better air flow. So the short answer is yes, they are supposed to be there.

This would be the long way of saying yes.

NO!!!! I am going to disagree, you need to get rid of that TB! I'll tell you what, send it to me and I will deal with the problem and then send you mine in return. This way you can have a new one to start the process fresh again. PM if interested...
