That looks like holes for an aftermarket hood pin and trim piece.

Turns out that is exactly what it was for - a hood pin.
When I went to bolt on and align the hood, the hood brace was slightly bent affecting alignment. Took me days to straighten and complete the alignment.
I bought a cheap pushbutton hood pin to make sure it stays down.
