    Is it a small corroded freeze plug?

    And, it looks like the engine block - not the frame.

    There are 6 of those holes with normally a black hand push in plug. When they are gone, missing and leaking. You need cylinder liner orings.

    Sorry for the bad news.

    Head needs to come off. Cylinder removed, inspected, re used or replaced. O rings replaced. Re installed, with new head gasket and bolts. With all the Labor costs. Might as well spend a few thousand more and do an inframe overhaul, while the heads off.
