Dale, those 2 holes are for the engine stabiliser rods. They go between the bell housing and the hull.
7/16" dia

Conduit colour?
Dale, I thought I would wait until you had painted and installed your conduit before I asked the question of what finish is the conduit done in?
I was looking at a factory pic and it looks more black than Khaki #3. Just a thought!

Dale the threads are going to be BA, which is why you are having trouble finding bolts to fit.
I think all the LP2 and LP2A carrier theads, smaller than 5/16 dia. are all BA. Lets see what the others say?

Agree with you Lynn, OBA or BA and other threads that are not common these days. There are also whitworth in there as well.
Most can be taped out to a SAE thread that is common. In Dales case, 1/4 SAE for this example

Darrin, Not so sure about the Whitworth (UNC, yes. As all the larger carrier specific ones are UNF) Yes there are UNC threads in Ford built components (Engine ,gearbox, diff assy's etc.)
Splitting hairs really as unc and whitworth are all the same tpi except 1/2"
