Expert Reply:

The Draw-Tite Hitch, part # 75650 does indeed have the hole for the j-pin. The J-Pin hole is a great feature as you might know, as you can use a J-Pin to eliminate rattles caused by the clearance needed between the hitch and any ball mount or other accessory like a bike rack that mounts in the receiver.

Unfortunately, the J-Pin is no longer available and that smaller hole is not used at all.

I have linked instructions and a video installation of a hitch on a 2009 Subaru Forester, which the procedures and instructions are the same for the Hidden Hitch # 87493 and Draw-Tite # 75650. I have also linked a video review of the J-Pin Stabilization Pin, part # 63201. You will also find instruction and a video review for the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness, part # 118467.
