So I got my cases split!

Got my crank out, and it may be good. My cranks has plugs or "caps" in it. Two are missing though. The came out when I took it all apart.

However This crank that a board member has is missing the "caps". Do I need these? Or just take them all out and call it good?

Can you post some pictures, the caps may be in there to help the flow of the fuel mist through the bottom end.

The caps were screwed, so I removed all of them. If nobody says any different, I'm gonna go with it.

Heres what I have now. So much better than the parts that came out of the flood engine.

I went out and took pics of 2 oem cranks. All plug holes are open like yours. You should be good to go. I can upload the pics if you need to verify.
