Ron – yes, the pipe plug on the side of the gearcase is the fill port and the top mounting screw for the rear gearcase cover is the vent plug.    Tubs picture is identical to my 1937 Champion D2C gearcase.   And yes, if you poke something into that small hole below the cavitation plate, it just hits the driveshaft down tube – I’m not sure of the purpose of that hole.
