... of correct steel plugs with recessed square opening.
Application is for a 1969 aluminum intake for solid lifter BBC's. These go in the two threaded holes at the front of the intake manifold. I am told that JM has these but as he just got back from a massive road trip I am not able to catch his attention at this time. Thanks!

Try an electrical supply house. They used to use them to plug electrical junction boxes.... long before plastic became popular.

After you called I emptied out my four 5 gal pails of nuts, bolts and hardware and nothing there. Tough item to find indeed.
