Freeze plugs
OK my 99 dodge ram truck 5.2 got hot n I baby'd it home. I come to find freeze 2 freeze plugs were coroded but only one bad enough that was possibly were the leak was coming from but now that ive replaced those it's still leaking from Bell housing area. How many freeze plugs r on the back side of my block I can see 2 n they r perfect??
There are two between the engine and trans. I don't think you can see them without pulling the motor....
There is also the possiblity that its leaking from somewhere else, and it just runs to the lowest point on the engine, before dripping off. (been there, done that.....) Clean things up good, get it warm, and then see if you can see where it's coming from. Mine was actually leaking from the freeze plug behind the drivers side motor mount.
