I'm going to be horrible, but from memory the injection cam doesn't have the fuel pump eccentric ground - it was 'as cast' on all the fuely cams I saw, so it might be a good idea to check the profile and see if it's a carby cam.

https://www.aussiefrogs.com/forum/index.php?threads/need-to-clean-an-aluminium-block.140441/If anyone has tips for how to non-destructively clean cast aluminium - specifically, the throttle body, and two parts of the huge intake manifold - I'm all ears. They're a little stained and dirty-looking. It's raw cast aluminium. I suppose silver paint could help but I'm not sure I want to go there.
Apart from cleaning, the throttle body needs to be disassembled and cleaned out, just as a precaution. I have new bearings for the throttle plate axle, if needed. I probably want to plate some of the associated hardware as well.
But I'm going on holiday for two weeks so not much is going to happen, I expect, but if it does, I'll post it here.
Yes, it's pretty much essential to remove those plugs and clean out the galleries. The fist time I did this I was stunned at how much gunk was trapped.
