Coolant pouring from back of motor

i think i might have blown a freeze plug or something because coolant is pouring out from the starter area under my camaro.... all the heater core lines are fine and there is no fog in the cabin but i dont know what to do im without a vehicle atm.... is there anything else in that area that could leak water like that

thanks in advance for any help
