These dowels are located at the rear of the engine block. They are used to locate the engine block to rear engine cover/flywheel housing. These open center pins often get damaged or come up missing during service. Dowel pins prevent shifting during install and post install. Not installing them will surely lead to leaks or damage.
Fitment:

Note: These locating pins are also used for the cylinder head to block mating surface.
