Yes that looks like a deep pushrod hole so it is for manual brakes. On our trucks the bore diameter is 1-1/8" for both manual and power brakes. Keith Seymore shared the engineering charts with us on what I think is the definitive thread about manual brake master cylinders for 71-72.

This is the same thread where 54blackhornet discussed his research at NAPA going into paper parts books to figure out the correct master cylinder.
