Wanted: image of rear of AMC 360 showing freeze plugs (coolant leak)

They are not hard to find or small. If you cannpt see up in there you can feel up there. You should be able to see up in there fine if you just get under it with a light. I put a block heater in a AMC 360 in a Jeep truck many years ago (you remove a freeze plug) and I did not have to raise engine up to do it.

You'll have to pull the tranny, remove the flywheel or flex plate and replace the casting plugs which are cleverly hidden behind the flywheel or flex plate.

An alternative is to pull the engine, replace ALL the plugs and, while it's out, do a total rebuild if you think it might need it.

When one cast plug has failed due to corrosion, normally the rest are due to follow.

With that in mind, I recommend pulling the engine and doing all of them at once. There are three or four back there and ones in the sides.

While your at it it would also be a good idea to give the blcok a good flushing out and poke around in the water jacket with a lenght of coathanger wire to get any crud out of there, ought to make the engine run cooler.
