Sure. Contact Metrics in CA.

I have the head at the machine shop and it is going well now.  They at first could not remove the ball stud bases, but manage to remove all without tearing any threads.

New question, they removed 3 @5/8" dia oil plugs from the block, I see that 2 go on the rear of the block, but cannot find where the third one goes. Anyone know where they go?

Thanks!

One is
 behind the chain sprocket on the front of the block.

rumb:
Thank you!  I obviously missed that.

Finally found it! It is behind the lower chain guide. Removal of the pin with the large nut, the 2nd pin and then the guide finally revealed the location. The reason for the large nut pin is to access the plug behind it. I also noticed that the lower plug in the back lines up with a galley that run to the front of the block. The upper rear plug galley goes thru to behind the pressure relief valve.   :) :)
