I am having a problem with my 1991 Z28 camaro with a 350 engine when i add coolant to the car i leaks right back out but not from the radiator or water pump it seems to be leaking from above the crank shaft do i have a leaking freeze plug or should i be worried of a cracked block? Furthermore do i even have a freeze plug in that area ? any ideas would be helpful .
