Volvo Penta 3.0GLP-C drain plug

[roddybush]

I was using the boat this weekend and thought the head was cracked because water was coming out. looks like the company that winterized it didn't put the drain plug back in the exhaust manifold. Should I be worried or just replace the plug? Is there anything special with replacing the plug?

what goes in the center hole of the exhaust manifold. It doesn't seen to show anything online

Ayuh,...... Welcome Aboard,...... Is the drain plug layin' on the motor,..??

In a cup holder or glove box,..??

If not, manifold drains are either 1/8" pipe, or 1/4" pipe,....

Brass pipe plugs from yer local hardware store will do the job nicely, 'n cheaply,....

The drain plug is on the far right and is still there. Just a thread hole with nothing in it in the middle hole. Would a brass plug be ok? It does not show anything on parts list
