You can’t see exactly where that comes out, but it looks to be the right location of my leak. I think this solves my problem! Thanks for the image!

Thanks for this additional information. It all makes sense now. I was really concerned I had a coolant leak from a rusted engine block plug.

I’m leaning to the drain now as well. No rain in last two days and once I cleaned all the gunk off the hole it finally drained out and stopped. I drove it a few times yesterday, and no more drips so far. I’m thinking maybe someone screwed a hollow piece of pipe in there and over time it had...

I’ve driven around a few miles and got the operating temperature up to 220, and not a single drip now, so maybe it is a valley drain after all. I had forgotten that I had changed out my therostatic control valve and when I did, I lost some coolant that spewed all over the engine bay for about 3...

Here is a little better picture. There is the remains of something threaded into the hole. I can feel the threads on what is left, but there is no head any longer as all of that crumbled to pieces when I touched it. Now I’m concerned if it is supposed to be open and is a drain plug or if I need...

Based on what I’m seeing, it appears to be a 3/8 NPT engine block plug. I found a part number but it doesn’t seem to be readily available. I also found generic plugs available, so I think I can get one, I just hope I can get the old plug out since it is rusted and flaking. any suggestions on...

I found something in the engine manual and it just lists this as a “plug.” It doesn’t show a part number or anything. It looks like a bolt with a 4 sided square head. Anybody had to replace this plug? It looks like it just rusted out. Hopefully I can get it out without it falling apart as pieces...

I have a strange new coolant leak that I noticed today. There is a puddle of coolant under the transmission area. I crawled under and looked and coolant is leaking from a rusty looking bolt/nut just above the oil filter. I looked for a disconnected hose but nothing like that I can see. It just...
