Yes, there are two holes on the head and manifold under and between the
intake ports that route coolant into the manifold.  It's a common spot for a
leak.  It's not too hard to remove the manifold.  You'll need to take the
heat shield off of the intake manifold (under the carbs).  Then you can get
a deep well socket on the end of a long extension or two all the way back to
the nuts underneath the intake manifold.  Don't take the carbs off the
manifold - that's more work than it's worth.
Note too that there's a third freeze plug on the block at the center an inch
or two down from the top.

        I don't really see any easy way to get at the lower exhaust header
bolts that are on the bottom and burried.
