Would I be right in saying that cars prior to NVH kit just had the pinion carrier bolted to chassis with vertical bolts through the mounting lugs?

I mention this because post NVH versions appear to have the same mounting lugs cross drilled to allow horizontal bolts as well as shown below, in this case attached to NVH forward arm.
