Can anyone offer me some photos or drawings of the openings made in the horizontal Stabilizer to tighten the hinge bracket nuts?'

'It's Service Bulletin 42-1-C.  The sketch shows elliptical slot with round ends 1.5 inches long with 3/8 radius at both ends.  Parallel to the spar.  Just forward of the spar.
No torque value given, tighten as required.
