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

Neither one has straight access, unfortunately.

Can you drill and tap them?

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?
