[DML] Tamper proof plug?

["Tom Tait" <TTait@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I need to get my tamper proof plug opening clear so I can try to correct
a mixture problem.  I'm not sure what the factory plug looks like, but I
don't think that is what I have.  It looks like there are threads going
down the inside of the hole, then a metallic mass - maybe the remnants
of a screw and the head has been stripped out or maybe JB Weld or
similar - its hard to tell especially when I don't know what either the
virgin hole or the original plug look like.

I'm about to get some duct tape sticky side up under the hole, get the
shopvac running next to the hole, and just drill it out.  If this is a
bad idea somebody stop me.

Does anyone have a close-up photo of the hole with and without the
factory plug installed?

When all is done can I carefully seal it up with some ultra copper
silicon?
