I got mine from vw a few months back and they have the oil holes in both sides.

Would like a spare set to keep in the unit.

Ive never seen big end shells with oil holes in. We arent talking about main bearings here are we?

Ive just fitted a set of £11 china-tastic big end shells to mine. No holes at all lol.
