A plurality of other cores are formed in respective master molds to define respective surfaces of the engine component. The organic-like core is assembled with the other cores to form a casting mold. The engine component is cast by flowing molten metal into the casting mold, thereby forming a continuous parent metal bridging the water jacket having a predetermined porosity. The core material is removed from the engine component after casting.
