Hi Joe

Many thks for your post

Interesting, for sure, but for me the holes do not strongly remind me of Pileated holes which are typically much more rectangular in shape, the long side being vertical.

Just my opinion.

Best wishes

Agree.
And wood often splits vertical from pil's holes.
Have seen many growing up in Maryland (near DC) and camping and scout counselor in Appalachians in Virginia. Even had them in my back yard growing up there.
Once at camp I was chopping wood and a pil came down to see what was going on.
