shuggy repco and places like that sell welsh plugs by the size of the
plug so when you remove your ones either take that with you or
measure the hole it came out of

nup,
tap them in squarely till it moves in a bit then tap in one side carefully 'till it "turns" so you can use some slip jaw pliers to hook on to the now raised edge and pull it out of the block without scratching the hole too much,

DO NOT knock it all the way into the block it will get lost and cause cooling system problems
keep trying, it WILL break !!!!!!
