This excerpt taken from a recent article in Sporting Classics Daily. Could this be the answer?

That is not the hole that is referenced in this thread. Those holes are the ones on the bottom inside the action that are used to help remove the hammers and mainsprings from the action.

No no no, you use grease not oil.......:rotf:

Sorry too many 1911 discussions about the proper method for cleaning a lubrication. Don't make me threaten to hard chrome a parker for rust prevention when carrying it in a humid environment :shock:
