Where are the freeze plugs located at on the front of the engine? I had the two back ones replace and now they are telling me the front now need to be replace. Can this be done with out pulling the engine?

About how much to have replace by a auto shop?

I am not showing any front block plugs that are for cooling system, only oil galleries, They appear to be threaded type. The two on the rear are the only coolant plugs shown, and they are threaded type also. What is the reason that they are telling you to replace them? It looks like there are press in type plugs in each end of the cylinder heads.
