Bell housing plastic plug ?

[Sunny2007]

This round plastic plug just pushes in a half inch hole and not threaded,but gives inspection of the flywheel,and wonder if it's used for lube also.We don't lube flywheels do we ?
Nice to see if the teeth are still there thou

The reason i ask is i see other models in the manual with bell housing lube holes.All i can see in there is a dry flywheel.

Any idea's on this.
Can't find anything in the manual for it

Volvo Penta AQ225E
GM 305 with Volvo 275 i/o

I'll take a photo and see if i can figure out how to paste it in a message here.Maybe that will help.

No need for a picture, it's just an inspection hole, and the plug keeps the dirt and water out. The lube fitting (some have a zirk, some a plug, some none at all) went to the bearings thru a grease passage.
