Does anyone know if the ports were an adaption for airflow for low level or just access points for the wing?
ChrisVJ, looked at the Mail photo. They are access points for the person holding the dolly when bucking the rivets for the leading edge construction.

Don't know, but would be a good place as well to run such things as nav light wiring, pitot tube line etc. Could be why they are still open.
