Hi All,

 

I've rummaged through my misc. metric hardware and stopped in a few bolt suppliers and have not been able to find something to use to plug this hole (see attachment).  Looks to be a about 10mm x 0.667 th/mm.  So what did the rest of you guys use?

 

Getting close to trying to fire up this thing......
