Hi Richard,

It's been a long time but I think that I filled the cavity under the holes with JB Weld.  That area is water cooled so I don't think that heat will be a problem.

Bill,
 
after cleaning the rotor housing and looking at it again I think the drill and tap can be done.
 
Thanks

Took the engine apart and found the previously mentioned holes in the exhaust port wide open into the oil pan. Now I have to find a good way to close them. Anyone having a good idea?
