Just came across this thread. This is a standard owner mod, to enable the console to be removed more easily, without having to remove handbrake cable to get full movement..

Sorry to contradict, but yes J.P, it was always open - with a cut as shown in your picture to accommodate the handbrake lever - It's illustrated just the same as yours in the Viva GT factory service manual TS982.
I tried to upload a picture from the service manual but as usual pressed the wrong button. It's on page 169 of the manual.
