360 freeze plugs

I know the brass plugs go on the sides but where do the little nuts and small plugs go on a 360 or 390 block?

Plugs

The early FE's used the small press in plugs, the later engines used the threaded plugs for the oil galleries. Make sure to use #2 Permatex to seal the block plugs.

It's been a LONG time ago, but I think you'll find their home on the back of the block at or near the cam shaft.
2x on the oil gallery
