Installing double roller need help?

Yeah I was thinking of some sort of freeze plug but I fiquered I would ask you guys what you used when you dropped the stock chain. I already had the electric w/p on there but the shaft was still sticking thru the timing cover and leaking oil So if somebody can give me somewhere to buy a plug for the timing cover I would appreciate it. BTW it's a Coyes double roller chain. Thanks Clint

All I did was put a silver dollar in there and used a lot of RTV. Smoothed it nice and no leaks.

Take a look at these

Plugged Hole Pic Front

Plugged Hole Pic Rear

Basically used two washers and a nut/bolt than used some RTV to make sure it did not leak.

That guy used a bolt and washer on his, but i don't know if that will clear the double roller.

I just had this hole pluged with an aluminium sheet and filled with aluminium weld, then it was ground flat. Looks good and no leaks.
