You gotta fix that.
By Dave Shoe - 07/09/2003 10:58:51 PM; IP 216.243.176.34
A backwards cam plug (as your is) can rub against the cam and generate debris which eventually finds it's way into the rear cam or main bearing. Many engines have failed from this.

The cam plug is tapered differently than coolant plugs, and it should only be installed facing out. You'll need to replace the plug with a new one. Again, they need to be carefully sealed. Slow leaks on the rear face of the block are a pain.
