Feel free to throw up suggestions on how to remove it without pulling the engine.

This is the return line on the passenger side of the block from the turbo.

plug port on intake and forget liquid cooling the turbo problem solved, Just let truck idle when parking for 30 seconds or so

Okay, I *may* have freaked out a bit prematurely. When I was underneath there, first thing that went through my head was that was the fitting itself that the machine shop left in there and somehow broke it off and I didn't notice it until now rather than it being a plug.
I have some ideas now. Thanks guys. Heading to Napa now.

I played a little with it, but couldn't tell if I was actually turning it (slowly), so I backed off for a few. I was getting frustrated and didn't want to wind up stripping it. I think I will try to get underneath there with a hair dryer and heat up the metal to see if I can get it to loosen up and get it out. I proceeded to other things and got some things accomplished today, so not a complete waste today. lol.

Find out if they used high strength thread sealer. If so it will really have to be heated to break loose.
