92 3EE : What's the ball behind the oil pump?

I am overhauling a 1992 3EE engine. Behind the oil pump is a ball inside a hole. What is the function of this? Is this related to the pressure regulator or anti-drainback? Are there any service specs related to this? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Re: 92 3EE : What's the ball behind the oil pump?

Love to answer my own posts. It appears that the ball behind the oil pump is intended as a plug, although why this is used rather than a cup plug, as at the rear of the block for this same longitudinal oil rifiling, is unclear. Just wanted to make sure the ball isn't some spring-loaded & seized component.
