Errr a white board marker!

I coloured in the teeth with a white board marker and gave it a spin, all seemed well (according to my secret weapon) plus the bearing play and backlash were all good so hopefully its ok. When its back on the road i'll take it for a short drive to assess it and if there's the slightest noise i'll take it out again and find somewhere to do it correctly. I always like to have a go myself first!

Does anyone know where i can get a new filler plug for an atlas?
