Default Curious Engine

There is something curious about the engine in my 37. It doesn't pass the pencil test, a post war block. But it has a 3 bolt distributor and chain cover, '41 or earlier. So, did someone drill and tap this block for a 3 bolt distributor? If so, why?
(The builder's stamp on the engine is: "Motor City Flatheads S.B". I'm guessing it was built 15-20 years ago.)
