Head help

[Gordon Claunch]

I need to find out some info on my Edelbrock heads, this evening I was doing some maintainence on my car, cheking for header leaks and found something I never noticed before on both heads facing the firewall and the radiator there are holes and I could feel exhaust coming out, is this normal or should these be plugged off, these are the holes I used to hook the engine hoist to when installing the engine.

Thanks,

they should have plugs in them. Press in jobbers that look like little freeze plugs. Never seen them on edelbrock heads, only ford's aluminum heads.
