Hopefully this is the last stumper on my engine, but again it seems I didn't take the best photos. I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Here is a photo to show what I'm confused about: http://i.imgur.com/OePWB.jpg

In this photo there are two spots on the engine. One is a post, one is a hole.

Judging from my own build pictures, the left post is where the throttle linkage hooks up to. A spring goes from that linkage, down to a tab on the oil pan to keep it tight and the gas pedal hooks directly onto the linkage near the post. However, I seem to have NO pictures of the hole on the right, or what it's for. I've checked at least 20 image pages on google, along with most the galleries on here and I can't seem to find anything. My Shop Manual also yields nothing. Judging from poking it with a wire, it doesn't seem to go into the water or oil journals of the engine.

Can someone please tell me what it's for, or even post a picture of what hooks there, so I can smack myself in the head and say "DUH!"?
