Didn't your welch plug supplier have any brass ones?
BTW, don't you want to link my 2004 thread to this one?

That bolt in the hole is SUCH a bad idea, although having said that I haven't yet been defeated by one. This engine came close though with a corroded head. I had to hammer on a metric socket which did the trick.
The supplier didn't have any brass ones, so I thought this was a better option than no-more-gaps
Yes, I'd like to merge the threads but I can't seem to make it work.
