I have a Chevy crate motor as well.  It has a pipe plug fitting in it.  I've 
never taken it out, but it appears to have pipe threads on it.  As the engine 
was going into a Greenbrier that didn't need the hole I've never worried about 
it.  A freeze plug should work fine.  

Anybody else got a '60 block or generic Chevy crate engine that they used in 
a car other than a '60?  How did you plug the hole?
