Re: freeze plugs
Sorry, but your engine doesn't have any freeze plugs unless it has been replaced by an engine prior to 1941ish. I hope it's not cracked as well.

Re: freeze plugs
X2 with Ralph. Pretty tough to diagnose with what you're giving us. Pics are your friend and I'm not familiar with flathead freeze plugs. Plenty of people shopping for "it froze" plugs though. With the limited info that you're providing...head gasket or crack in the block.

Re: freeze plugs
Freeze plugs and -52 sounds like it´s a 215 L-6 to me...

Re: freeze plugs
It wouldn't be a flathead with a 215 for sure. Still a good motor, just not a flat one. If it's a flathead V8 then you could have a head leak or possibly a crack into a center exhaust port. A freeze crack in the lower pan rail can leak outside the oil pan but most of the time it fills the pan with coolant. It's kind of rare to have a crack in the outer wall of the block but I won't say it can't happen.
