How many freeze plugs are on the block of the 2.5 4 banger?

I see three on the tranny side, three on the exhaust manifold side, and one above the timing gear cover, are there more?

I just remembered by looking at it that the 88 block is different. It has none on the intake side. Here is a pic of the 88 block. I notice there are 2 in the back of the block under where the bell housing would be. Here are some pics I just snapped.




I know its not what you needed but I ope it may help someone.

Trivia maybe..... the big hole in the second picture next to the timing gear is for the water pump when this block is used in an S10 pickup. It's not a freeze plug of any type. In 87-88 Fiero the hole is covered by the Serpent tensioner but in most other cars it's got a simple steel cover.

Guys, thanks for the help. That block looks to be the same as mine. Thanks again.
