Also what's the hole for on the inside of the passenger side fender?

It's for the origin of a continuous (but of several pieces) structural assembly to support the front fenders and also serves as the mount for the headlamps and horns. The casting mounted to the fender at the hole attaches thru the radiator shell to a steel support rod behind the radiator shutters and continues on to a similar construction on the other side.

These photos should help show the construction.
