there are several freeze plugs on the right side of the engine, you can purchase new plugs are most auto parts stores, all ya do is remove the old plug then press the new one in, usually with a hammer and some sort of dowel. i believe there are some freeze plugs in the head if im not mistaken. is your car leaking coolant? im assuming so. the plugs allow the coolant/water to have an escape route if the coolant freezes.

yes it its leaking. thanks now i understand how it works. now i just have to trace it out. is this usually a hard process? should i be worried about it pushing threw?

yes you can push it in too far, just becareful when "pressing" it in to place, look at other freeze plugs and compare their install depths. you should see coolant stains in the area its leaking.
