No, shouldn't be there. It was almost certainly put in by someone who line bored the bearings for the gear counter shaft. There's not much room between the last bearing and the inside of the case so if the line boring machine had a large support bracket for the boring shaft, it would have had to go outside the crankcase - hence the hole to pass the boring shaft through. At least it shows that someone has worked on the bearings at some time in it's life - probably did the crank bearings at the same time maybe? I've seen a few Hendersons where this has been done. Ace engines have the hole and cover as standard. ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Hello Everyone I have a Question we have here a Henderson 1922 De Luxe It has a Inspectionhole with a cover over th sprocket in the upper Case on Gearboxsite.Does anybudy know if this is Original or is it Drilled later. in my Books is a 1923 Prospekt that shows nothing.
