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.

Think people are mixing up big ends and main bearings!
Mains (in your block) with holes
Big Ends(on the fat end of your rods) no holes
