so I was out driving today for the first time after replacing a bunch of steering and suspension parts in my 73 Mexican Mach 1, and everything was running great....and then I saw the steam and the engine temp gauge....radiator was empty and coolant blown everywhere under the hood. I figured a punctured hose or loose clamp somewhere. nope. so had had pulled over at a gas station and bought a few gallons of coolant and starting pouring it in, only to hear the sound of it pouring out. took me a few mins to find the problem. I'm guessing its the timing cover but am not sure. can anyone confirm the location of the hole in these pics? its about 6" directly beneath where the main coolant hose connects to the motor. I'm pretty concerned until I know what part broke...
thanks
