I am rebuilding a 365 for my sedan. I ordered a complete rebuild kit and found that they shorted me a freeze plug. I cant find one at my local auto parts store, infact they dont even show that my engine takes this size. They only show 1 47/64, 1 31/64 and 9/16. The freeze plug I need is located on the rear of the block, left of the cam shaft plug. I measured the diameter of the hole at 1 1/8. I had gotten one of this size from Napa but it was the style plug that has to be hammered in, and I need the style that the center is must be tapped in.  My question is has anyone came across this, and where can i find the right one?  :-\
