68 GT350 tail light panel

I was wondering if it was common to see masking tape left on the taillight panel, from pattern? Also what is the purpose of the hole in the upper left hand corner? Right side has on too It does not appear to have had a screw.

Not sure about the masking tape, but the little hole was a mount for a cable tie that held the dynamite sticks...
