You should have a blank cover plate in your collection of bits for the big one. Not sure as to the round hole tho. Did it ever have one of those "hang down" dealer added A/C units in it?

Basil..you figure it out....I'm thinking the oblong hole is typically used for A/C hoses...

I do have a cover for the large oval hole and have learned that its for accessing the starter motor more easily if needed. The smaller hole remains a mystery however. Doc - never had air. Number 6 - If it is for wiring, I'd like to know what wiring and to where? I'm beginning to think maybe its an artifact for a right-hand drive car that just needs to be plugged for a left-hand drive; but that's just a theory.

Now, this is just a WAG, but: This is just above where the tunnel bolts down, and it is on the right side. The Tachometer Generator is on the RR part of they cylinder head, mounted to the rear of the inlet camshaft.
What are the chances the tach wiring comes right off the generator, through a grommet, and to the tach? These are the same design as a MKII, which is totally self-contained and isolated, so separate wires would not be uncalled for?

Sorry Tony and Basil,
I went to Daytona Beach last week and just got home tonight. Will try to look at my car this week. I promised Basil a couple of weeks ago I would do that.
BTW- I brought a TR250 back with me. It followed it home.
