The problem is most of the people in the parts department have not been around long enough to know any thing about a motor that is 9 years old going on 10. I am sure that the people who put together the cam support kit had over looked the fact that the original TC 88 was different. For what it is worth my delkron plate was drilled and tapped for a plug to fill this opening.
If you have a good store specializing in screws and fasteners you should be able to get a 1/16" pipe tap and Allen type pipe plug. Tap the hole and lock tight the plug in. Or get a thread displacing fine thread self tapping screw and a copper washer to seal the hole.

Hello there cts1950...
i agree with you, i asked 3 dealer`s today about that very same question you had asked... i got the same exact answer that you got... go figure bro. These dealers need to get off their azz`s and start paying for smarter tech`s instead of these highschool retarded book smart punks they have right now. And most arent EVEN booksmart. (most of them cant even read a shop manuel) I`ve turned wrench`s for 40+ years... i probably forgot more than they`ll ever know.
I like your idea of tapping the hole and plugging it off, but i`m not sure which hole to tap and plug off in this camplate.
Can you possibly locate some pictures and show me...??? If you can, you can email me at:

Thanks so much foir your awesome info...!!!!
