The fabrication drawings clearly show that the center hole for the Dzus 
lockwire and the rivet holes on either side were part of the original 
stamping.  It's likely that they were punched when the semi-rectangular 
opening was punched into this panel as a second op process.  So the 
opening and those holes would be consistant.

The holes for the hinge rivets would then have been drilled after this 
assembly was welded into either the next sub assembly or farther down 
the assembly process.  The degree of freedom would have been limited by 
the camlock screw, in position, so it couldn't have been off by very 
far, or vary very much, or it would appear crooked to the eye and the QA 
crew would have been upset.
