I doubt the hole/slot will make much of a difference. They'll just use the Ferrari/Sauber style slot.
With regards to McLaren seemingly suffering a lack of power. They have the same engine as the Mercedes but are usually at the opposite end of the speed trap rankings. Most likely because Mercedes rely more on mechanical grip (hence the troubles with making the tyres last) so can sacrifice a bit of aero for speed. But all of the engines are so close (not sure about the Cosworth) that it makes little to no difference in terms of speed and reliability.
