Grease Nipple Removal
Oddjob:
No, they are casting marks and every clutch casing has them. It's where the alloy was injected into the mould, the plug is the result of where it was cut off the mould.
Do you need the dowels Simon? I've got quite a few stashed around somewhere. A bit of heat and a good pair of pliers and twist them out. Some get ruined as they can rust themselves into situ but 80% come out and can be reused.

Bring it back in bits, a few parts at a time Roo. ;D ;D
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I agree with Ken they look like casting marks - they tend to oil stain and look bad. It would be an odd place for a stress fracture - see if it rubs off with some medium/fine wet & dry.
