Oil Plug
Oil Plug I picked up a LS1 that came with a GTO Oil pan. There's a little rubber plug that's sitting in the hole for the F-body dipstick tube, that's no longer used.
Does anyone have a picture of how this plug should be installed? Currently it's just sitting in the hole from the outside and seems like it could be blown out fairly easily.
Should I push it through from the inside?

My block came from a f-body so it didn't come with a plug. I'm use the GTO dipstick instead of the f-body one so I need to close this hole. There was a rubber plug that was sitting in the hole from the previous owner of the block. It sounds like I need to get the metal plug?
I tried the GM dealer parts guy for the little metal plug that closes-off the dipstick hole in the aft RH side of the FBody block (near the starter motor). The parts guy could not come up with a part number, se we cleaned out the hole with alcohol, and JB-welded an M10x20 cap screw in as a plug. No worries yet; using a modified GTO pan on our LS1.
