Well I am about to take off to Thailand for 2 weeks and wanted to do a quick fix until I returned to spend more time fixing the problem. Well tonight I took epoxy puddy and filled around the two leaking plugs. Those are now fixed but I am still loosing coolant towards the back of the engine where the tranny bolts to the engine. I have looked on line and cannot get a guaranteed answer as to the freeze plug locations of the Dodge 318 engine. I have heard that there are two on each side of the engine block and possibly two more on the rear of the engine where I am still leaking. Everything else is in great running order in this truck.
I am just checking if there is anyone on here that might be able to tell me if there are freeze plugs on the back of this engine and possibly provide a diagram. I looked at the local parts stores for the chiltons manual but they are not in stock right now and there is no point in ordering since I will be gone for two weeks. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure there's two in the back that require pulling the tranny to get to. I'll try to see if there is any more info available.
