Default WHat am I missing in this Cylinder head?

Is there something that should screw into this hole my finger is pointing at in this stock head? I just got them back from LE and there are bolts for the brackets on both sides that go into the other 2 bolts but nothing into this that I can see from what I have assembled so far? same thing on both sides... No its not the coolant tube on the back, been there done that already...

No, that is for the accessory bracket. That bolt hole should not go all the way into the head.

EDIT: After looking at the above picture, nothing goes there at all. The Accessory bracket uses the upper two bolt holes, not that one.

Yeah, nothing. Like I said above, that hole doesn't go all the way through the cylinder head wall.
