The hole that the temperature sensor screws into. I have the sensor on the drivers side like factory but I have a new set of heads and need to plug that hole. I went to NAPA, Autozone and Advanced and no one had a metric plug. If no one knows Ill get one tomorrow at work by trial and error.

temp sensor is in the driver side head. There is a hole in the pass head that is plugged.

Its (both I believe actually) are a 12MM x 1.5 x 22 (not sure on the 22, its the length. its a stubby bastard though)

whatever you do, just dont use one thats too long. Its a shallow hole. If you get a bolt too big, you're gonna either bottom it out and strip it, or it wont be flat against the head and the hole will leak coolant.
