To answer Bondo's question first, the early Gen II drives didn't have the reservoir, there for, no need for the opening in the drive. In later years the quick disconnects were installed in the drive and the bellhousing.
To Billder62.
The drive will work fine. There is a seal in the new gasket that will go around the quick disconnect in the drive. Since it's flat on the drive, it just butts up against the bellhousing and does nothing.
