Default Nit picking question

On my 2008 GS 450h on the trunk lid there are two bumpers. (part number 9054109116) above these "feet" there are three small screw holes (about 1/4" in diameter) on my car two of them have little rubber covers ... the third one (the middle one) is open.. Is this normal? Anyone have any idea what the part number for these little covers is?

Sure. Here is a photo of the underside of my trunk lid... The outbound holes have a little cover... The middle one is open... Is it supposed to be like this? is it a drain... or is the plug missing?

Whats yours look like

That's the drain hole for the condensate inside the trunk lid.
