Right on Dennis.
he purpose is two-fold, as they also prevent the
deck flexing and a compromised seal (due to
unwanted movement). With the upward arc of the
deck structure, including cabin trunk, it is
impossible to flex down. So pins are an elegant solution.

The pins in Randy's chainplates are quite loose. I could almost remove
them by hand. I told him when he reassembled them to center the pins in
the chainplate and make a detent on either side with a metal chisel to
prevent movement.
While I agree thier purpose is probably to hold the bedding
Yes, you tap them out (and back in) with a nail countersink.

They are likely there to hold down the bedding plate. Sometimes you have
screws and pins which can be lifted up for rebedding around the chainplates.
