Try doing a search, "SLP lid." I remember reading a similar post where someone posted a site that sells every kind of plug you could imagine.

Go to ACE hardware and ask them for their rubber plugs, bring the lid in there and find the one that fits the hole.

the company who makes the plugs is called caplugs. I ordered some samples online and got like 10 extra. Do a search and you will find the part number. Go to their website and order some samples. They work great and are shipped right to your house.

I rigged mine. Used a type of cover and glue to cover it up. Worked like a charm....
