You\'d probably be best off using your old core plugs as a pattern, any decent motor factors should have a range of sizes in stock. Easy to fit, just use a similarly sized socket as a drift and a copper/rubber mallet to tap them into place. Prepare the hole with emery paper to remove any rust n\'sh*t that might prevent it from sealing properly.
