          There is another plug that fits too. I think its a rocker arm oil plug for a big block chevy. I have one on my bike and it works great. Been meaning to take a picture and post the part number, but haven't got around to it yet. Will go out to the garage and get the number off it when I get a chance.

            OK went and checked, and of course I installed with the number to the inside.

            But I believe that a Dorman 362605 is the correct number. Its a chevy block oil gallery plug. I installed mine with the cup facing out, but if doesn't really matter. It's a bit of a snug fit as I recall, and you might want to bevel the end just a bit to make it easier to install.


            Here is a link to the specs.
