ball bearing are oil and water journal bearing are oil.. some water and oil.. But anyways you can tap into the front of the block just below the exhaust port where the header bolts . there is a bold there you can take out for the feed.. and for draining the water tap into the radiator

^^lol. Not all of them. Ball-bearing chra are water/oil. On My gt3076r I'm running the b&r fitting kit which uses the the front port of the b series block and returns to the bottome of the radiator. easy effective and good price.

That's not a bad spot to do it. I'm sure the B&R fitting kit would be able to access the freeze plugs. I believe there is a thread on it.

I personally did the TB port and the port by the waterpipe towards the front of the engine.
