Are these good point to lift the engine from?

Discuss the RB20, RB25 and RB26 series engines.

So, these two places on the head look they were meant to be lift points. Anyone concur?

yeah they work, I use my load leveler, Use one bolt on the far back of the head, one I screw in up front to the head for the exhaust side, along with the front of the intake side of the head. Then for the rear intake I used a tow strap and wrap it around the #6 runner. Then lift from there. I've done it like 5 times in the last 2 months, works like a charm.
