Default Heater core or the water pump lines leaking

can anyone help me put in a bypass at the engine area on a Detroit 60. Need to locate the water pump and its lines that go up front to the heater core and install a bypass. we don't use the engine heater and don't want to get stuck on my way to Newell in three weeks..

I think you aready have cut offs in the engine area for the upfront heater core. Look for heater hose in the engine compartment. They should be 3/4 hoses the come off cut offs.
Hope this helps

From the back it should be on the left side of the engine on the back side of the water pump. Mine is a spicket type and you should be able to cut the water supply off that run to the heater core. Hope you have one.
