I have the 2 1/4 holes open next to and below the draft tube on a 1950 216. I don't know if it was there when I bought the truck or removed when the motor was rebuilt. My question is must I install a new crankcase baffle deflector or can these be plugged and if so what would be the result (more oil out the draft tube etc)? I can get pics if needed. Thanks.

You will blow a lot of oil out of the draft tube if you don't install the baffle. If you don't have one try asking in the parts wanted section of the swap meet on this forum. I believe you can install the baffle after dropping the oil pan.
