Motor: 5-speed 1jz-gte motor from a supra.
First of all, sorry I don't know what to put on the subject line but it's related to the 1jz head. It's kind of hard describing this but follow along with the pictures. BTW, the motor is not in the car yet and this would be a quick answer if any of you guys have a 1jz motor that is out of the car just by comparing your motor to mine.
Ok, on the back of the 1jz head with it stamp "JZ2", to the left of that, there seem to be an unblock hole for possible oil leak. The other two similar hole have a metal ball, or a ball bearing to seal if off. My concern is that, is this normal? or there should be something blocking it, It does not seem to me that anything plugs into it. I stuck a small flat head into it and it when in about 3" into it without hitting anything meaning it'll go further. When I pull out the flat, there seem to be some small oil stain on the flat.
Here is a closer view on unblock hole that I am talking about.
And here is what I think should be there to block off that hole.
Again, let me know if any of you guys have a 1jz that still on a stand or out of the car to verify if your is the same as mine and that it's normal or do something pop out and it would be a major oil leak if I swap the motor in with this unblock hole.
Let me know if my question is clear because as I say before, it's hard to describe it.
