On the lower picture, what is the hole to the left of the script for? I am thinking it's for an accessory heater.

In an earlier ‘ACCESSORY OF THE DAY’ post (Nov 1, 2010) where
Jay used a Waukesha - Ricardo head as a prop to show some cylinder
head primer cups, I had posted two more cylinder head patents in
Ricardo’s name as well, so I thought I would add them here also.
