All I have to do tomorrow is go to the bank in the morning, and pick up a different size freeze plug for my mom's car.
I have to figure out how to get a 1" - 1 1/8" rubber plug large enough to bite the plug hole. I went the next size up, and it's TOO big (even used lubricant). Unbolting her exhaust manifold proved to be a PITA, as there's a metal hose with a rusted banjo bolt that limits movement, so tapping it in with a hammer isn't going to happen. NX1600 fail.
