What is it you need help with? If the port on the head is plugged then you should see a plug threaded into it....

IMPORTANT!!! Does it have an oil feed steel braided line running to the back of the head on the distributor side? If not DO NOT start the motor it will blow up instantly. The hole you plug on the head is normally the oil line, without the new line added there is no oil circulation in the head or engine which is very very bad

Yea nothing in that head is plugged. You can find kits with the sandwhich plate, the steel line and fittings, the tap, and the plug online for like 150 bucks or something.

something like this.
