Engine lifting hooks and egt probe questions

[Spokerider]

1993 AAZ......into an 87 Samurai

Since I got my engine as a short block and pieces, with many missing pieces, I'm not sure where the lifting hooks go [for attaching the cherry picker chain / bar] or even what they look like?

 Also, wanting to drill a 1/8th NPT hole in the exhaust manifold for a future egt probe. Where should it go.......in the stud-hole? Just before the stud hole on the nickel sizes flat spot on the manifold?
I've seen a few pics of both installations. What is that exhaust bracket [ that bolts onto the two studs near the exhaust flange ] for anyway? I'm not sure if I will need that bracket for my sami swap or not. I will have a custom exhaust pipe from the exhaust manifold flange to tail pipe.

I have the K03 turbo with the 3 bolt / triangular shaped flange on the exhaust manifold.

Thanks for your help.

one hole is on the transmission end of the head the other one bolts to the front of the head by the #1 injector.

On the 1.6, the right side has a short tab that attaches at the same boss as the upper alternator bracket. The other end of the head has a cast flange with a hole (near the corner of the valve cover).

Here is where I installed my egt probe in my 1.6td with a k03 combo
