I am trying to seal the head that has a water leak. Wife got it hot last summer and warped head. At least it leaks out and not in. All I need 2 know is where is the drain plug on engine block to drain all water. Which side, location etc. It was recommended for me to use K&W Block Seal permanent metallic head gasket repair. Do you know if that's the best to use?

if it lasts more than 10 minutes i'd be very surprised. just pull the lower hose off. the head should be taken off, cut or shaved then reinstalled with anew gasket. there is to much pressure there for it to even thinking of sealing.
