On my 289/302/351w front timing cover, there are 2 areas where I always have a little coolant/water. Whenever i run the car and get back home there is a little coolant in the deep well type areas of the front cover (1 on each side) not much, just a table spoon or so. All my gaskets are good, so it shouldnt be the gaskets. I cleaned it out with a rag, and with my finger i can feel a boss or possibly factory hole 1/8 - 1/4" on each side,(back side of waterpump) and this would explain my issue.
can fill these holes with jb weld?
is this a factory thing?
are they some type of weep hole or something?
does something breathe from there?
thanks
