It shouldn't have a cracked block if you kept the correct amount of antifreeze in it. That doesn't mean that the PO did though... Anyway, there's a big freeze plug behind the bellhousing and a smaller one next to it. The small one is directly behind the camshaft, so I doubt it's the one leaking. (Well I guess if it's behind the camshaft there would be oil behind it, not coolant. DUH!) What happens is when rust builds up behind the freeze plug, it develops pinholes. These can go unnoticed and eventually get worse. You can just pull your tranny, pop a new freeze plug in, and you should be good to go!

If my old memory serves me right...Yes you are right on the problem If it were mine, I would pull ALL the clutch/flywheel pcs & check it......I doubt that you cracked it, more likely a rusted out core plug. If the block is cracked, you will see the line of rust, running to the core plug . best of luck,crazyAL
