Freeze out plug on rear of engine is leaking, but is in a position that is almost impossible to reach without removing engine. Is there a sealant that can be added to the anti-freeze to help seal this leak? Thank you in advance.

no, it must be replaced. thats why it is so expensive to replace these at a shop because of what we have to go through.
it is a time and material job.

is it between the engine and trans or is it back by the firewall??
