Just like this write-up I had to shave my locking pin since it would not go into the flywheel.
I have found an problem though. I have 2 oil drain holes on the exhaust side of the head that won't drain oil at all. I need to figure how to clean them out without messing up anything else. I have arrows pointing to the ones that don't drain, holes 1 and 4 starting at the front of the head. Any clue on where this oil drains to? Does it drain straight to the pan or does it go into a crank bearing, etc.? I want to make sure it is safe to spray some car cleaner in there to soak and clean them out.

What did you end up doing to make sure it’s draining?
