Is this what the tapped holes were for on the receiver I have? The holes are drilled on the right side of the receiver and I was trying to figure out what they were for.

No. The Lyman 48 and all standard receiver sights mount on the left side of the 70. Redfield & Vaver receiver sights all mount on left side of M70. There were many different scope sight bases designed after WWII. Those holes may be for one of those. I do not recognize the hole pattern.

I found a bolt for the barreled receiver and I held my breath when I check the headspace. 
Boy was I happy when it passed. Its a perfect match for my rifle and from looking online looks to be the correct bolt for my 1940. I cycles perfectly in the action as well.
Thanks for the help everyone, made looking for the bolt a lot easier.
