I think there is a mod that makes another hole near the original one, bigger of course, and at an angle so the effluent runs down behind the flywheel unless you fab up a drain pipe like the OEM pipe. I never did that trick when I did my clean up. I just don't know if it would matter.
Gary, re your serp belt Q. Do you see any cracking on the ribbed side, on the smooth side? Is it chaffed at the edges? Do you know how old it is? I changed my OEM/BG one when I got my car in the winter of 04-05. It looked fine but it was 14.5 yrs old & had 7400 miles on it. I'm changing out the replacement shortly because it has gone 38k miles and it's 6 yrs old....jez I've had my car that long! Time flies when you're having fun I guess!....they are expensive. If it breaks I kind of doubt that the old nylon trick will work to get you home. JMHO.
