Any pictures of the top of a V10 with intake?
I bought a engine off ebay, and the back passenger side has an unused hole on the head at the very back. I am assuming these heads are interchangable from left to right (2000 PI headed V10) which means this would be spare. Just can't believe ford doesn't cut the extra gasket off and or plug the hole. The hole runs from the head down through the block to the lower intake galley.
This normal?
Thanks!

They are NOT interchangeable left-to-right.
Can you take some pics?

Is this the hole you're talking about?
I just got done doing a rebuild, and I took quite a few photos. Wondering if this is the hole you are referring to.
I can do some research if you need it. Just let me know.

I looked at the motor in my E450 , its the same, so I guess i worried for nothing! I will snap a picture just so you all know what I am talking about.

V10
My E350 has exactly the same configuration. Ford has left the protruding gasket in place so it looks like the whole flange is off center. Nothing to worry about

if you look at the hole, it goes all the way through. Your pic is of the passengers side, right? don't worry.
