that looks to me like EGR on the front of the manifold. Is your spot in question front or rear of the manifold? top side or bottom side?

Wondering if it wasn't a donor part.....
Sorry guys for the newb style question Anyways more info on the motor from what the owner informed me is that it is a 454 bored out to a 502. The plug is welded in at the back of the intake by the dissy. The only thing under there is the lifter valley. From what I seen from the tear down, it has been played with and knew of the water leak because all the silicon used on it. I just cant think why they would drill a hole in the intake then weld a plug back in? And also the intake was milled down a full 1/4 inch making it sit to far down in the valley.

Damn, that's not the best place to break down. Surely a patrol officer showed up to help.

Y'all be careful out there in TX. If you see an old lady driving aimlessly around, it's my mom. Be nice.

Wild eh? It was close to filling up with water. It sat so far into the valley that it was trying to pull the intake back up. All the holes were oblong and cut threads into the top side.
