Question for 68 pickup owners...help!

Does anyone have a picture of a factory 1968 firewall on the driver's side? I am in the process of shaving my firewall but can't remember what all the holes on the driver's side go to. I have three holes, one is speedo and a second is oil pressure. Can't figure out the third. Please help!

Thanks Dan

Do you still have questions? Size and location would help.

Yes I still need help. The three holes I mentioned are on the very driver side of the fire wall. they are above the sqaure hole for the wiring block. One I believe is for speedo, and I'm guessing one could be for a choke?, and the third I'm lost on. Thanks for the help!

Here is a picture of my firewall:
The black cable that is going nowhere is the choke.

Mine has three holes left of the wire block, lower is for my Tach wire, middle is speedo, top is plugged off. Then there is a small hole above the block that has a rubber nipple in it (no idea on that one). My oil pressure goes in on the back side of the hump, along with manual throttle.
