Its where the rear of the camshaft would sit.
Interestingly I've just found this picture online which also seems to show this machining hole 
However yes, I've emailed AMC and Turners with pictures and asked their opinion. 2003 Defender 90 Td5 CSW Belize Green - "Betty" 1958 Series IIA 109 Station Wagon - "Randolph" - Awaiting Restoration 2019 Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon - SOLD 2006 Volvo V70 D5 - Ocean Race Edition, SOLD 2003 VW Passat Estate 1.9TDI - SOLD 2008 BMW 320D M Sport Estate - SOLD 2001 Defender 90 Td5 Hard Top - SOLD |

All looks fine to me, the hole is to allow oil to drain away from the cam otherwise it would just pop the rear cam seal out

just had a reply of Turners
Dear Adam Thank you for your e mail and attached photographs. The cylinder head is exactly the same as the last 1000+ AMC cylinder heads we have sold. The red circle shows an oil return hole, pressure would build up without it. The ball bearings seal the fuel gallery and are peened into place. There appear to be one or two minor dings and dongs on the head that will not affect fit, function or purpose. The slight damage has most likely been acquired after unpacking. AMC heads are extremely diligently inspected prior to packing at the factory. Has the AMC packaging been opened/changed prior to delivery? Certainly put my mind to rest a bit! 2003 Defender 90 Td5 CSW Belize Green - "Betty" 1958 Series IIA 109 Station Wagon - "Randolph" - Awaiting Restoration 2019 Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon - SOLD 2006 Volvo V70 D5 - Ocean Race Edition, SOLD 2003 VW Passat Estate 1.9TDI - SOLD 2008 BMW 320D M Sport Estate - SOLD 2001 Defender 90 Td5 Hard Top - SOLD |
