hat is where Ford inserted a cylindrical fiber wick to hold oil that would gradually seep out the hole in the side of the shaft where it passes through the upper (front) distributor bushing. No need to remove that already staked & difficult to remove screw, just add oil with a squirt through the hole in side of shaft.
