What do I call this plug?

Missing the plug in the pics.
It's in front of the oil pan below the pulley right next to the power steering pump.
I have looked everywhere for it. Need to get a new one, but I don't know what to order!



I think it is the oil pump plug. It is on a 2.5 NA (Still waiting for my 200 tdi to arrive).
Even though I'm swapping the engine soon, I'm throwing new belts and fluids in to make sure it doesn't fail on me until then!

Don't worry Bout it, it's a wading/breather plug. Install it when driving off road if you are going to be hitting high water. Can't remember the size. If oil comes out of this hole you gots an oil leaking seal.

Thank you for that!
Thought I was losing my mind because I couldn't remember removing it!
Spent an hour scouring my garage, then figured it must've vibrated out while driving, but oil level is good.
Need to run it to bleed my power steering, but wasn't going to start it until I put the plug in.

People often put their wading plugs in their tool bag in the truck... if you have a tool bag, check that... (if you ever wanted to find it. I have not had mine in for 15 years...)

I think you have one already. Isn't that a plug in the holder position in the first photo?

Looks like it might be time for a new belts.

Belts are next (Before I drive anywhere).
My list of "Need to do" is far longer than my list of "Already done".

Change the motor before you bother with the belts.

Bit of a delay shipping my motor kit out and it's not Harley weather yet, so replacing a couple belts is worth the time to drive what I like!
