I used some drain plug I found at Advanced Auto, I just had to cut it to length. That lasted about a year so I said screw it and I found a couple of bolts that fit the size and thread perfectly, I had to cut the bolt to length also. The bolt has a 6 or a 9 stamped on it and I don't remember where it came from in the engine bay.

LOL, how about I fill you guys in on a 10 dollar secret. I have seen many a koyo with a bad drainplug. Find a spare 86-91 intermediate iron, pull the metal hex drain plug out of it (where the driver motor mount bolts up) and it threads right into the koyo. In fact, I have one in my car's koyo right now. 
This is also nice because the hex plug is long, and you can use a socket and extension to remove it, versus fishing around up inside the plastic underbelly cover with a screwdriver.

I already went and bought the damn bolt... but I'll probably just do this instead.
