Is this hole suppose to be here ????

The hole in the casting that leaks coolant? Nope. Not supposed to be there. A good welder can fix that.

If you're asking about the rusty looking, orange spot, below the coolant spigot, then no. If so, clean it up and have it welded, or JB weld would work fine too.

If not, what hole are you referring to?

Is the jug aluminum or steel? So i can have it welded at a shop.
