Mine DID have that - and the block came to me completely bare, not even maincaps.
It was completely unknown provenance out of somebody's back yard in Panama.
There were no bolts in Panama of the required strength standard. We vacationed
over Christmas with missionary friends near Dallas and I got both maincap and
bellhousing bolts for around a dollar apiece. I got a few extras.
I borrowed a 19mm socket from the neighbor across the street to torque the maincap
bolts. Then I found out they were within a couple of thou of 3/4".
