Yeah that stud at the drivers side rear of the block. I=E2=80=99ve kept it i=
n check with sealant and lead washers for several years. The stud held torqu=
e but it now allows water up the stud and created a milkshake last time out.=
So, it=E2=80=99s time to refresh it and since I have another block...
Would like to change my own block as well...
