Subject:Freeze plug leaks oil
From:HotelWestfalia

I don't remember having this discussed.  I could be wrong, of course.

There is a "freeze" plug on the right of the crankshaft pulley, that I see seeping oil and probably even leaking when the engine gets hot.  My question is; can it be fixed?  Is it leaking because of oil pressure behind it, or it's just oil being there without pressure?  

I guess, Scott would know it for sure, but there maybe others just as knowledgable.  

Good wishes,
Zoltan
