Hood latch panel. To the left of the hood latch, looking from the front, there is an empty bolt hole on my panel. I don't know what went there. Looking at numerous pictures, it looks like there is a cap nut on whatever it is that goes there. I am installing this panel now. I am missing my safety latch, but it looks like that is just held on with two bolts, and not in that area. Any help in identifying what goes in that empty hole? Thanks. Flathead engine.
