Seeping plug.
By Dave Shoe - 09/30/2002 1:11:44 AM; IP 67.4.132.78
I've seen only one plug pop out. It was on an Edsel in a salvageyard. I pulled the tranny off and saw the plug sitting on a rib on the back of the block.

I've seen many plugs seep, both threaded and pressed. Great care is required to get them to seal. I'm sure reduction of the possibility for leaks is why the FE became a center oiler, when the earlier Y-block was a side oiler.
