6.0 from truck or Camaro/Corvette? If truck it is cast iron, and one hole must be drilled in the block to fully attach the bracket.

It's to mount the alternator. A hole that exists on aluminum car blocks but not truck blocks. To use car accessory drives, that hole must be drilled. The truck drive does not need it, so it's not drilled from the factory. Do a search on putting a Camaro/Corvette accessory drive on an iron block, and it should tell you something.
