1.6L oil feet port plug picture needed.
I'm pulling the turbo off my 1.6 and need to put the plug back in my block for the oil. I think I found the correct bolt in my big box o' bolts, but I was wondering if anyone had a picture of the plug bolt to make sure I'm using the right one. I can see me using one too long and blocking the oil passage or something stupid like that, so I just wanted to make sure.
Just for clarification, this is the plug on the early 1.6 blocks, near the rear of the engine block, down low on the driver's side.

it's a very short threaded section, and the nut head is like half the height of a normal nut, and there's a ridge around the edge and might have an M or something stamped on it. want MS Paint?
a bought a ~1/2" bolt from lowes-- M10x1.5 and it was fine.

Worst-case with an overly long bolt would be that it doesn't go in all the way, as the threaded portion of the hole is fairly short.
