its probably where the breather was in the older motors. use a freeze plug to plug it up with. then you will need to hook up a pcv valve into you valve covers. the pulleys i dont know about without looking at it. you can get by with a little out of line if you're not gonna turn it a lot of high rpms. without looking at it i dont know. :HMMM: **)
