Water started pooring from the passenger side of the engine from under the motor mount area.
Is there a freeze plug there?
if so, where would i find a diagram of the location of the freeze plugs?
also, What would be thr best way to replace it?
Thanks for any help you offer.
From a stressed chevy fan.

yes there is a freezze plug behind the motor mount. Best way to fix it is loosen motor mount from car the one bolt. then jack the engine up and block it so it doesn't fall, then remove the 3 bolts that hold the motor mount on and drive one side of hte freeze plug in and pull the rest out with pliers after it turns or just knock it into the engine, it won't go anywhere or hurt anything. the get some blue loctite and put on the new one and drive it in flush.with the edges. then reinstall everything.
