If you are talking about the holes in the bell housing, they are for cooling the Torque converter

The cut out on the bottom of bell housing is to allow access for your finger and to do up the 3 bolts that attach the drive plate to the torque converter.

the engine crankcase also has a similar indent to allow access.

If your not using the correct engine casing then its going to be very hard to do up the 3 bolts. not much room in there.
