Whats the function of the small hole it has in the joint area

[@sailingwithus5743]

I believe it's to provide oil to the oil gallery in the rocker cover that splash feeds the cups on the push rods.That's my guess, hope it helps?

And why do we do this?

[@siirkire]

Thanks for the video, by the way.

Hi and thanks for the question. I should have put an explanation at the start of the video.
A simple reason is to make sure the valve fully closes as the wear limits change on the seat.
