Those holes look normal to me. I've never studied them, but I think all my stock balancers have them

I was a machinist for 10 years. I balanced a lot of engines. I drilled holes in the outer ring of the damper without any problems. You don't want to go super deep, tough. How deep is the hole?

The last engine I had balanced came back with new balance holes drilled in the face of the outer ring.
