I have my impeller house apart for cleaning and it appears there were alignment pins for the front and back halves . How many are there? I have 2 pins around the impeller itself. There seems to be holes in the perimeter for pins too? Please review and advise so I can dig up some more as needed

Best

I have heard arguments that the cooling setup was designed to have air coming out of those, and blocking them will mess with the rest of the air flow. I have not done any research on this, but I do know that air flow is some of the trickiest and least-sensible mechanical engineering out there.
