If it's the heater hose fitting, there are rubber caps that you can put on with a hose clamp.

I had an issue with plugging the hole in the back of the timing cover with and allen plug that kept leaking. I used teflon tape, teflon thread sealer, silicone. No Luck.
Then I got the regular 12 hour JB Weld. I put some on the plug and in the hole, let it set up overnight and no more leaks.

pull something solid into the nipple to reduce the opening, then JB weld that plug in place. it helps hold better if there is solid metal for the epoxy to hold to.

Redline, The hole in the water outlet is sized just right for tapping for a 3/8 npt pipe plug without any drilling. Just run a tap in deep enough to install the plug flush with the outlet. I use a brass plug and teflon pipe dope never any problems. Just dont try and run the plug in with a lot of torque or youll split the outlet.
