Coolant leak

92 f150
4.9L EFI

--Today I checking coolant pressure. \
After a few squeezes I ended up getting water spraying, dripping and whatnot out of the engine seal on the frnt passenger side.
That little metal cap has a few pin sized holes in the middle and I believe the edges of the ring are leaking also. When i squeeze the radiator top hose it literally sprays a jet stream out of the side of the engine.


--use some muffler patch and silicone gasket former to patch that leak??

anybody got TWO CENTS?
