That appears to be a classic "freeze plug" type heater.

Although they are termed "freeze plugs" they are actually holes to get core sand out of sand cast iron engine blocks. Normally sealed with a stamped steel cup plug which you replace with the heater.

The Ecotec block is die cast aluminum (totally different production process) so it doesn't have the "freeze plug" holes.

Here's a YT vid of a block heater that fits the Ecotec, but I don't know the mfgr or p/n.
