    The headlight wire harness goes thru those holes to the 'J' pipes.

    Ed I am talking about the other smaller holes near the edge of the support . On the drivers side it has a captive nut on it . Which I am un sure of its purpose. I think these were a Porsche one size fits all on the drivers side because that capitals nut
    Appears to be where the battery hold down bracket would be on a later SC type battery would be.
    The passenger side is just a hole . I really am not aware of any need for that one would be there for.

    Any idea when they stopped having that long oblong shape indents under where the battery goes on the drivers side for the front gas tank support ?

    Then I agree, probably a multi-year part.
