Victor Jr. Coolant Plug size

In the coolant passage next to the thermostat housing, their are holes one to each side. They both appear to be the same size. What size pipe plug do i need to fill these holes, or at least the drivers side hole?

Should be ½" pipe, like about every other intake. They're for heater hoses or temp sending units.

Get em at Home Depot or some such. Get brass ones. Pick up a couple of sizes if you think they might be some other size.
