That hole is where the clip goes that holds the engine cover up when opened. If you look carefully just under the trunk lid seal in the dead center of the car there is a little tab.

It's the notchback version of the strap on the lid for the squareback. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
