We ned all our coolers for the trip this weekend so on my weely trip to lowes I ytacked down an assosciate and asked wheere can i find a 9mm rubber stopper or cork in the fastener aisle.
He asked, "you need exactly 9mm?" so i showed him this:

Lowes should have all sizes of rubber and cork .
Or just pop off a round and use the casing and silicone to make your own . Lol .

It looks like you have a 9 mm cork, and a fine conversation starter as well. Maybe swap it for a fired case, and you could trim it with a hacksaw if you don’t want your ‘cork’ to protrude so far.

popping off a round in my neighborhood might invoke SWAT.

Use a rubber cork. Harbor junk sells a small kit with various sizes. I lost caps to gas cans I used for motorcycle racing,
and I use them...still after 20yrs. No issues.

40 S&W might fit a little tighter.

Rubber freeze plugs that you can tighten and squish it tight in the hole..

After looking up freeze plugs... 3/4" was the smallest I could find

If this was a real question, why don't you pop that drain body out, and throw in a new one?

Forget the cork, and put a spigot on it
