I just found a picture of a Canadian production F15's dash in Australia - indeed the centre hole is not punched out:

This is no real surprise, as the Autopulse or electrical fuel pump was originally fitted to trucks built under Indian Army contracts only.

But don't forget Australian production Chevrolets differed quite a lot from Canadian ones. Off the top of my head, GM Holden only imported the chassis and drive line components, everything else was made locally. Australian Ford CMPs had much more Canadian content.
