Generally, the Block Heater cord is tucked into the back of the bumper - More toward the passenger side of the truck. If your truck is equipped with one, that is. Although, I can't see why anyone would NOT order it - Considering it's only a $35 option.
I was looking at a drawing on one of Fords websites and it shows the block heater is installed in place of one of the expansion plugs on the drivers side of the engine ( near the rear of the engine ) on a Ford F-350 7.3 liter Diesel V8 engine

On a 3.4 liter engine the block heater plug is located slightly below and to the left of the exhaust manifold. You can access the block heater plug by reaching over the top of the engine or from the left side, under the alternator and belts.
Hi, This should be located on the engine plate which is normally on the engine block or on RH side of engine compartment. Kev
That would be a big block. If you are referring to the diesel engine, it is based on the Oldsmobile rocket block, and shares nothing with the engines usually referred to as big block or small block.
I was looking at one of the Ford websites and the drawing shows two engine block heaters ( each one is rated at 1000 watts ) They are located on the passenger side of the engine block , in the front and middle expansion plug ( frost plug ) holes on the 7.3 liter diesel in a 1990 Ford F-250 * the drawing also shows that the heating elements are positioned facing UP
I ASSUME the block heater in a 2006 Ford Freestar would use ( 600 watts ) like my Ford Explorer 4.0 liter V6 engine does
a 7.3 liter diesel
