While I have my engine out to fix my crank, wanted to do all the things I didn’t do the first time. I want to make sure I do all the galley plugs that are necessary to prevent one popping out and losing my oil pressure. Several posts on this forum say just to do the five, and some other forums say, to do many more. I got the main five out, and they were really in there! It took many pulls on the slide hammer to remove them. Surprisingly enough, my galley’s were spotless! In the bottom 2 pictures, my question is, do I need to remove these smaller ones up by the oil cooler? And also, what about this big one to the bottom right of the oil pump housing? Do these need to be removed and tapped as well?

10-4.
It was so hard to get the 5 out that I did pull, I’m definitely not worried about the other ones coming out. I am going to do a true full flow on the engine this time, instead of using that adapter plate off of the factory oil cooler spot, as I did the last time. So I will only be putting 4 plugs back in. It was the original engine for the car with 100,000 miles on it, and it ran decent when I bought it. It just had oil puking from every nook and cranny, so I pulled it apart. And of course while I had it apart I changed everything.
