I managed to find this is for the neck tilt adjustment, discovered this by looking up neck plate parts on the fender website
I just purchased a new American standard and noticed the neck plate has a fifth hole with no screw, what is this hole for, maybe a strap button?
The plate is labelled "Fender CORONA, CALIFORNIA" if that helps.
Apologies if this is a simple question, I only just started playing a few weeks ago and this is my first Fender, I love it so much.

Go carefully with Microtilt adjusters. You need to loosen the neck bolts a little before making any changes. If in doubt, give it to a pro.
The truss rod key you should have got in the case fits the adjuster
Electric: Fat strat > Korg PB > TS7 > DS1 > DD-20 > Cube 60 (Fender model)
Acoustic: Guitar > microphone > audience
@markb, thank you. Yes I will not be touching the tilt or truss adjustments myself,that will be for a professional to adjust.
