After filling several heater holes, I am finding several holes on the drivers side that I have no idea what was mounted there. Could it be that there was an optional oil filter that was mounted in that location. The filter I have is mounted to the manifold. Thanks, I would appreciate your thoughts.

I went through the same exercise on my 41. 70+ years allows a lot of time for extraneous hole creation. I don't think that an oil filter was ever mounted on the drivers side firewall, but late 1941-45 military trucks all had an oil filter mounted on the passenger side of the firewall.
Are you certain the holes you mentioned are not for your voltage regulator? If you look really close at suspect holes (with a magnifying glass if necessary), you can see the difference between a factory stamped hole and a drilled hole.
