If it's a ford cologne series engine the freeze plugs will be right above the oil pan gasket I believe on the exhaust side of the block.

I make heaters all the time using a couple of pipe pieces sized for the water heater element in a "T" configuration. I also place the controller directly over the elements end so if it goes dry, the controller tends to shut it off. Got 3 in the ranger including one powered poorly by 12 VDC.
