Do yourself a favor and get the 18mm Snap-On 3/8 drive chrome universal socket 6 point....
It will get in there to take out the plugs because both sides are hard to get to in the boat.
There's only one on each side. They are 6 point black plugs with female allen patterens in them. I can't remember what size the allen is but it will twist off easily anyway. I found the 18 universal much easier. Hope that helps.

The orifices in the 496 heat exchanger are way huge in comparison and therefore would not cause a problem. Although, a leak anywhere on anything is not good.
It does have a five year recommendation.
