Pin holes in metal gasket plugs are to slow down coolant flow for uniform temp. Inside cylinders run hotter due to the outside ones taking that temp so you don't want the outer ones run cool or they don't contribute all their power.
90 PSI ain't good. You are on misfire range about 80. Built several hundred Chev 350's racing so take my word. Talking overhaul or at least valves. Might be better re-evaluating and maybe replacing engine. Target engine for most is in 1300-1500 range (excluding labor)if vehicle warrantes it.
