Yup, that's the heater core, and it does have anti-freeze in it. If you must keep drivin' her, you can disconnect the heater hoses and loopone back at the block.
(connect the out to the in) Now you can take your time and get the heater core out for repairs or replacement. Don't take too long though, it's gonna start gettin' cold soon, and you'll want that heater. ;)

Try Bar's stop leak if you want to keep the heater function.

They can be soldered to stop a leak as well. It's really not that hard with a plumbers torch. Good luck with it. Cheers
