Default Where do I get an oem oil port [plug]?

I'm finally about to do the oil pan drilling for my Greddy turbo, but I don't have the nipple to cover the stock tube where the drain goes to now. Where do I get one?

I searched for nipple and didn't find much, but did see that the most relevant search term in the search cloud was "what what in the butt".

Search for "oil cap" on about page 3. I just happened to remember discussing it not too long ago.

It's a rubber cap to go over an unused nipple fitting. Like the ones you can buy at pretty much any auto parts store. Or the ones you can make yourself by globbing some RTV silicone into the end of a cut-off section of hose.
