I think that that is the correct spelling.

It is a thin metal plug with a flat bottom and vertical sides about 1cm
high. They are pressed/hammered into holes left in the block wall that are
used to remove the casting "sand" that is used to create the water jacket
cavity in the block.

They are prone to rusting if made from steel and then leaking, requiring
their replacement. A real pain if the plug is inside the rear of the block
covered by the bellhousing in a rear wheel drive vehicle.
