I keep forgetting that ! Last couple of times I've pulled the headers off Ive had a blast of water from behind as the water in the head pours out on the garage floor.

Yep. I think every stud on every factory head goes into the water jacket, though many after-market heads are blind (such as Indy).
A dab of silicon and good to go!
