73-74-75-76 or so A body cars had a vacuum control, part of the emission system mounted on the passenger side cowl where the one hole is in your picture, but on the drivers side I am unsure. The passenger side hole looks about the size of the hole for the emission vacuum control as factory.
Drain cleanouts that someone cut.
Notice the OEM hole on the outside of that corner between the cowl and fender.
The square holes make it a ton easier to get rust causing crap out.
