I did not ask the blind to guess what damage is on. Maybe you have chosen to interpret what I wrote that way. I meant to mean that the individual with the leak problem should examine carefully. Depending on where a porosity leak is, it could easily mimic a freeze/casting plug issue. After having that water pump tube out and seeing how thin the metal is, I was worried that it may some day rust through and I would have a hard time fabricating a replacement.
