It's one of the bolts on the perimeter.  The "other" hole looks just like
the holes the plate bolts go through.  Often I've seen small *locater* holes
drilled in the plates of rebuilt instruments, but this one is, as I said,
as big as the other holes.

It *is* going to be a trick to work on.  Thanks for the suggestion.
