I'm a complete idiot...but where do these plugs go?

I got my LT1 block back from the machinist a little while back. The galley plug above the rear main is there, I have the 3 threaded plugs behind the cam.....but there are another 4 little push in plugs that he handed me in a bag.....and I have no idea where they go.....

Can anyone enlighten me?

Thats the basic conclusion that I have come to.

They are head dowel pins probably. You put them in the heads or block so you can mount the gaskets and heads without having to do a balancing act before you get the bolts in.
