Look above. Nick is suggesting you fill it with 5 pence pieces.

Alternatively you could get it welded or chop that piece of the plunundulum off and fit a blanking plate.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

I've just got a bolt though the hole on mine with a big washer & loctite on either side. Been fine for 10+ years.

run a 3/8" BSP tad down the hole an use a taperd hex blank, job done!

the hole size is a shade! larger than nominal, but you get some decent threads more than enough to hold that tiny amount of psi
