Firewall question

What shape should the hole in the firewall look like where the cab heat exchanger pipes protrude through? Is there to be a gasket in that location?

Second question, it there supposed to be a drain(s) for the cowl in front of the windshield? Current box under the cowl was full of pine needles and water appeared to what to flow in the area behind the door hinges. Should there be a weep hole below the hinge area?

Here's my '65. I would imagine yours is similar. If not exactly the same, at least a starting point. Someone else will chime in if I'm wrong.

Foam seal







Drain hole
