Yes you can still use the box
Sounds like it's from a prefacelift 325i with DME 1.1 and those holes were of the sensors used on the flywheel.

Your engine has much more advanced electronics than the one this box was originally attached to, and uses a single sensor near the toothed crank pulley at the front of the engine to replace these two.
