I used a SS plug from Jegs that has the same thread pitch/size. I used a high temp thread sealer on the 2nd plug. The first rattled out and created a huge exhaust leak.

Btw, I thought of welding it too, but in case I wanted to use it again, which I did, it was there.
Why are you taking it out?

Here's a link to a thread I did. You can see some pics with the plug. With the heat shield the 2nd one is not noticeable. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/10474651-post45.html
