Default blowng coolant out the back of engine

some seal at the back of the engine looks like it decided to blow.
Does anyone know what this is? it looks like a square metal plate with 4 bolts in it and looks like the water is comming out of the bottom.
It looks like its a terrible job to change. i wouldnt know how to access it.

any ides on part numbers? or what this is?

Yep.

Cylinder head end plate.

Never done one, but I reckon your sense of humour and patience will be seriously tested.
