The 2 holes you've marked on the gearbox bearing areas are blank holes for the dowels which locate the bearings. A quick blow with an air gun will clear those I reckon, no need to blank them.

My god, of course it is. I knew that already - don't know where my head was at thereā€¦  :o

Yup, all it takes is 1 tiny particle left and you wreck a crank journal, its why i dont do jobs where the cases need painting

Dont forget the holes at the oil filter and oil pump plus the gallery where the blanking plug does behind the generator cover

In regards to the last one, are you talking about the gallery that feeds the main bearings for the crankshaft?
