WATER LEEEEEEAAAAAKKKKK?!?!?!help
 
i thought i had a freeze plug messed up popped the hood started it(on leaks when running) but its not the freeze plugs its coming out from above them closer to the exhaust manifold....i was told by a mechinc that we pick on at work that it could be coming out from around or near the throttle body....ever heard of this.....need help fast so i can decide what to do

You may not want to pick on him,there is no water anywhere close to the throttle body except the head,and you would not if it was that. Just where is exactly is it leaking at on the ground? That may help on where to look.

the lower radiator hose is on that side, maybe its got a small rupture and its spraying on the block. Can you get a pic?With out seeing it i couldnt tell you for sure.

from where we could see it was coming down the side of the engine riding along the engine towards the rear then drippin to the exhaust and on to the ground right underneath the exhaust.......we pick on him bc he has done everything we add all of the years he has been at a job not including his child hood and he should bc 126 yrs old

The only water is up at the tstat,I would just use an inspection mirror and flashlight and look all around the front,and hoses.you will see it.
