you are right Richard. They do indeed look like 50 gallon drums stoppers but I doubt they are the same. Unfortunately they have a non standard thread, whcih is 2 5/8 - 24 UNF. Its worth trying but I am sure the thread on the drums would be much coarser. My simple assumption is that if each T16 has 8, and there were several thousand T16's with all the spares there must be a lot of these around somewhere. Anyway, the engineer has made a great job of the females, all I need is the males to fit into them.
