Default LS/VTEC Oil Galley

The reason for putting this here is simply do to the huge amount of traffic and quick responses. If the mods feel this needs to be moved then feel free I guess.

Info:
I've read a little about how the oil galley needs to be "welded and machined flat for any vtec head because the ls block does not have this galley and it will keep oil from sitting on the headgasket which could lead to a potential leak."

Question:
- Does anyone have a picture of where/what exactly needs to be plugged? I have not a clue and don't know where to begin searching.

I assume mine is since I've been with this step up for about 3ish years. But the head is off the car getting a new valvetrain and figured that I would check to make sure.

All you need to do is tapped it and plug it with a plug and sealer

Thanks! I assume it's plugged, but I'll check when it gets back from the machinist
