Default Lost Galley Plug

So somehow I lost a galley plug, and, can't seem to find one anywhere! Dealerships/auto stores/ etc. I've got an 06 A4 2.0T Quattro and would appreciate the help or suggestions on where to look next

Well silly me replaced the cam chain tensioner and chain, started car, and oil was shooting out. Took it to a mechanic and he said it's missing the "oil galley plug". I wasnt quite sure what he meant myself. He can't seem to find a part anywhere

Got it now. Might be a dealer item. I check ECS Tuning and they had some for Porsche and Subaru. Nothing for Audi though.

So I did some more investigating, and it could also be called a freeze plug or expansion plug, or even a core plug. The size I need is 10mm but no one sells it. Where should I look?

Freeze plug is what I call them. You might have to go to the dealer. Could try ECS Tuning, they might be able to help.
