Before buying any ammo, I would make sure it is still a 7.7 Jap chamber.

I know nothing about Arisakas, but that hole over the chamber has me worried-reduced to drill status only ?

The hole is a gas escape port, designed to release gas in case of a burst case head. It is not over the chamber or into the chamber; it is into the bolt lug recess behind the chamber. (FWIW, one way to easily tell the Type 38 6.5mm rifle and the Type 99 7.7mm rifle is that the former has two ports, the latter only one.)
