Default Kooks Headers, Exhaust Port?

I have a perfectly rounded hole on the passenger side exhaust header. They are Kooks headers, I know I have an exhaust port on the driver side for that emissions BS. Am I supposed to have one on the passenger side as well on the first pipe from the front, or is there a hole there now for a different reason?

They were purchased new. I'm assuming the emissions port was on that header and blew off. Anyone know that header had an emissions port on the first tube. I honestly forget.

that port is for the air injection system. Looks like the connector for it broke off. I would have to agree with getting a small piece welded on to it.. i heard kooks were pretty decent.. is your car throwing a code (ses light one?)??
