Do not use sealant on the head gasket. I use permatex on the threads of the bolts that go into water jackets.
Best place is in one of the cylinder heads, by the spark plugs. Or, the intake manifold, near the thermostat housing.
Usually the block heater is in place of the passenger's side rear freeze plug
Chevy did not have a 350 in 2001 engine options were 5.3, 6.0. or big block
The knock sensors yes there are two are located on either side of the motor (4.3LTR Vortec) below the heads in the center area of the engine block. There are a place for another sensor just above where the knock sensor goes but these are for other sensors.

There are a few of them on engines. They are cups about 2" around and a 1/2" tall that pressed (pounded) into the engine. You will find these on the engine located in the heads and block. In the heads they normally are one front and back. In the block you will find them in the front, back, and down each side. This is the same on almost all engines. Replacement frost plugs(expansion plugs) do come in a screw type, which allows you to place them in the hole and tighten in place with a wrench. Removing old one is not that bad, with a punch push one side in to engine to try to roll it sideways, where you can grab it with a pliers and pry it out of the block.
rear of engine block, drivers side, midway between top and bottom of block, one 10mm bolt holds it in place
* Remove the heads. * Take them to a reputable automotive machine shop to replace valves, guides and if necessary seats. * Put the reconditioned heads back in place, making sure that you properly torque the heads and perform other proper alignments as specified in the shop manual.
NO. The 76 engine has NO place to put a crankshaft sensor. Therefore it won't run.
You place a block by right clicking on a spot while holding the block you want to place.
All 1997 GM vehicles were fuel injected and all had the electric fuel pump mounted in the fuel tank. None had a mechanical fuel pump mounted on the engine block. A 97 Chevy 350 Vortec uses an electric fuel pump and sender assembly in the fuel tank. If it is a true 1997 block, then it doesn't have a place for a fuel pump on the block.
YES. If you look at the passenger side of the engine block just in front of the starter you will see a small plug that is screwed into the side of the block. That is a coolant drain plug so you can get all the coolant out of the block. Remove it and screw the knock sensor in it's place.
In place of the coolant drain plug on either side of the block.
