There's no "set in stone" things that go in any of them, but I can tell you what they're commonly used for.

1. and 3. can be used for the coolant temp sensors (for the ECM or gauges) or elec. fan switches

2. is normally used for the brake booster.

Hope this helps. What motor are you putting it on?

Some cars might also have heater hose nipples in holes 1 or 3.

Put brass or aluminum pipe plugs (NOT steel or black iron) in any of them that you don't use.
