Size of cam plug

Hey guys, I removed my camshaft and cam bearings, and therefore the cam plug at the back of the block.

I either threw it out, or it's in a pile of junk at home
I was going to drop by Napa on the way home and see if I can just buy this one, rather than having to buy a full freeze plug set. They can't find anything on their computers for this.

Anyone know the size of this plug?
Rock auto showed about 6 different sizes, all very close in size. 2 1/8", 2 3/32", then metric equivalents, etc etc.
Thanks

The '82 LG4 I just pulled out measured 2.089", would equate to the 2-3/32" size.
