Water is leaking from my engine on the passenger side. Looks like a freeze plug might have popped out, however, I can’t really see where the water is originating. Does anyone know the procedure to verify the problem & repair. A diagram would be great. Thanks

If a freeze plug popped out, I can assure you that’s where the coolant is leaking from.
