Question water leak

Hi everyone,
I have a 1990 tracker 8v AT 2door hardtop. I have been working on it over the past month. I had to replace the ecu, changed out spark plugs, did oil change and filter on it. When I discovered that I was losing water from underneath the throttle body area. Is there a freeze plug located in the vicinity? The drip is definitely someone where in the area and I can put my finger on it and it is about the size of a nickel or quarter size hole. If it is a freeze plug that has gone bad what is the easiest way to replace it? Any help appreciated. OH yeah jtgh there was not enough water in the radiator and when I did top it off car idle problem went away but of course I now know that there is a leak as described above.

powerful light and mirrors if need be,
easy to find the green juice.

its those tiny ones that squirt across the way and fool yah.
then windage effects too.

the area behind waterpump has lots of pipes,
any could leak and the rear o-ring to metal pipe
could leak as could water pump and blow back.


clean area of all green
warm up in drive way.
let it get good and hot (dont drive it)
then look, now the evidence is fresh, fresh sighs.
cheers

just site while idling till good and hot, drinkn a brewski and watch for the green puddle.
then get busy looking.
