Is there a hole under the gas tank?

I replaced the floor pans in my 52 M38 a while back. My question is there supposed to be a hole in the floor pan under the gas tank? I did not have a tank under the seat in mine when I got it and the 1/8" plate welded on top of the floor pan was covering a big a$$ rusted hole underneath

Definately a hole for the drain plug... approx 2 - 2 1/2 inch diameter...
