Cam cap dowels

On this 1975 Z1 the dowel pins on the cam caps seem to be installed at random. One has 2 dowels one has none. Are all the bolt holes oil passages or just one under each? Where do these go?

As Warren shows there are 2 dowels for each cap located diagonal to each other.  Which way is unimportant, as long as they are diagonal.  The function is keep the caps aligned correctly.  You should also do some digging here on KZR - Wookie has a clever install method using temporary longer bolts with nuts and washers on 2 corners to reduce wear on the aluminum threads during assembly. 

are they oil passages? Some holes seem to be smaller. I would very much like to learn about Wookies install method. Do you have a link?

None are oil ways. Oil is supplied to the cam shell bearing through the hole in the bottom cam shell.
the smallers dont have dowles fitted. Larger ones do.

Thanks for the correction Warren.  Maybe I've been lucky on assembly.   But then again I'm good at putting things back in the holes they came from...

Link below - I like his method as there is no rotational force being applied to those 50 year old threads

The change I made to the process is that I use 2 extra extra long fully threaded bolts at opposite corners of the cap with a nut and flat washer up near the bolt head.  After bottoming each bolt in the aluminum thread I then can tighten the cap down by turning the nut only, and there is no wear on the aluminum threads. Then install 2 correct bolts tight in the remaining two corner holes (the cap is already pulled down flush).
You'll need eight extra long full thread bolts with nuts and flat washers.  I use 70mm long fully threaded.  When all caps are snug with 2 long and 2 correct length you can swap in the rest of the correct bolts. Then torque all bolts to 60 INCH-pounds
