Default 01-06 Sebring Coolant Leaks

New here forgive me if this is discussed elsewhere,
My 02 Sebring has overheated a few times now. each time I find the cause, and repair, it seems to find another.
Now, I know I'm an old Man, and In my day I wasn't a bad Wrench, but is it possible for a freeze plug on one of these 2.7's to blow out?
The leak appears to be coming from the rear of the engine, and the freeze plugs ,they were fine when I installed the Engine ( weeks ago).
Any input would be appreciated, especially if it doesn't..involve removing the engine again.
regards,
Steve

There are fluorescent dyes you can add to the coolant, then view the engine with a black light to determine where the leak is coming from. No point in guessing.
