Hopefully this is not the case since I was particularly concern of just relying on the HG itself for sealing purposes than actually tapping or welding it shut. Let us know that you find out and GL!
I do have an oil pressure gauge and it is showing 80psi on cold start and may be that low due to my suspicion of the rockers seeing oil psi. However at idle I'm seeing 20psi or greater once warmed.

I personally don't see that port causing any issues being that it's sealed, but I suppose the future may tell. If it does, ill break out the drill and tap and seal it up.
