The holes, from the bottom side only, were counter bored to accept an aluminum washer. This aluminum washer is not available for parts service. The aluminum washer is to have a press fit into the spacer plate. In some instances, the washers could fall out when overhauling or repairing the engine. If this occurs fabricate new aluminum washers as follows.

Be sure to thoroughly clean the counter bore in the spacer plate before installing the new fabricated aluminum washer. Do not use adhesive.
