Default lifter tray oil holes

Anyone out there have the hole size and location for when you drill the oil drainback holes in the lifter trays. I tried a search but could n't find anything. A pciture would be nice.

Thanks for the help. Droptop that is exactly what I was looking for. What size holes did you drill and do you just drill one side?
