spark plug valley colver bolts
hey. i was looking at the big 14mm bolts that hold on the spark plug valley cover and the bolt furthest to the back of the engine has a little threaded hole in the middle of it with oil trickling out every once in awhile. is it supposed to have this threaded hole? oil is coming out of it and leaking down the rear of the engine. i figure i could just get a bolt with the same thread and plug it. what do you think?

It's used to mount a throttle cable support is certain engine configurations... LHS vs RHD, IIRC.

Ahh, a support for the heater hose! Never seen one of those.
FOUND IT! 87263-14170 it's an 89+ in the USDM parts catalog. Same location is also reportedly used for one configuration of throttle cable bracket but I don't recall ever seeing a photo. Regardless, the hold shouldn't go all the way though but you're free to plug it if need be.
