I took off my cylinder head today and found what looks like coat hanger wire in the water jacket. I also see through the thermostat opening a stub where it could have been attached. I would find it hard to believe it "found its way" in there. Not the first Slant 6 head I've removed but never saw that before (not that I looked). Does anyone know about this?

I believe it has something to do with the casting process, or something to do with the molds used in the casting process... I would not be too alarmed by it..
