"...I'd like to find a oval bung aswell please if anyone has one?..."

I think I'll just cut them out of a flat piece of rubber and simply fix them from outside using some gasket master paste, that bears heat.

The large "Oval " hole should have a bung in it...bought 1 recently from VX and was about £1=50,as mine was mising.

Its purpose is to give an access point for the auto gearbox flex plate to torque converter bolts.

The bottom round hole also has a bung in it about 25mm circular which I assume is also for getting access to the flex plate to turn it during assembly but not really sure.

I havnt looked at mine yet but it sounds as if there might be a lot of cars without these grommits.If they are there to stop water ingress they would seem to be pretty essential
