They are holes in the head. They appear to be from the factory but i just want to make sure.

Here's a picture from the actuator solenoid valve replacement how-to thread. Is this what you're seeing, or do you have the valve cover off?

Here's a shot with the solenoids out and the valve cover off.

And here's an exploded view. #207 is the gasket that seals the area of the actuators(236 and 237) and the center of the valve cover(around the spark plugs) to the head.

The holes he asks about may be the 4 to 6 threaded screw holes on the valve cover? I believe they fastened a plastic shield cover that went over the coil packs keeping dirt & debris out??
