Yep, the Jeep developed a coolant leak. Sure enough not good.

He hole you see inside the circle had JB weld covering it. Definitely Bubba had his finger in this.

New expansion plug installed. It got a very good coating of #3 permatex first. Got plug from NAPA. Cost $2.49.

The question of the day is, Did you replace the rest of them on the engine at the same time? If one was rotted the rest are close behind.
