One of the freeze plugs is leaking. It is on the drivers side rear,lower end.

Is it on the outside, inside? How easy it is to change?

I don't have much experience in the freeze plug, but i have access to tools and a jack.

Just need to know what kind of time I am dealing with and where it is at exactly cause I can't see anything up there if you can give me a exact location so I can in point it that would be great to.

The hardest part about changing a freeze plug is getting good access. Some are easier than others. The big issue here is that once one goes, you can bet there will be many more to follow and some can be real hard.
