Does the "lid" screw in or snap onto the top

Edit: the hole in the side (tiny hole) should also have something to screw into it

The lid screws in.

There are three holes equidistant around the perimeter. They do not go all the way through.

Really? Then my guess is those may be for a tool to hook into for turning. All in all it looks like something pressure line or liquid line related
