Cut a hole, or pull the intake and the heads. Obvious choice.

Care to speculate, as I asked Ralph, on the consequences?

As to the operation of the cooling system? No difference of
doing it right. The plug was installed correctly using an
installation tool.
To the vehicle itself? A Campbell's soup can lid pop riveted
to the firewall over the hole I cut. Complete with some
sealant to properly seal the firewall.

However, I might add, that the following weekend, I pulled
the engine out and replaced the rest of the freeze plugs.
Because I didn't want any more trouble with them.
