I'm glad you cleaned up that hole I was wondering if it had a frost plug in it.
Now, I'm not saying you're wrong, but I had thought those bolt holes (and the ones on the other side) were for a front-engine horseshoe mount. Back in the days where the bellhousing had mounts on both sides. Also for medium duty trucks with a single front mount.

Anybody seen factory brackets that hang the alternator off these holes?
