[Vwdiesel] Argh! freeze plug fell in block!

[Shawn Wright]

I went to tap in the freeze plug in the end of the block (access for int. shaft) 
and it seemed too loose. So I tried to get it out, and it fell right into the 
block! It is the same size plug I used on the 3 coolant holes on the block, 
so I don't understand why it is so loose - EKTA says they are the same 
size.

Any ideas? Should I just get the next size plug and try it? I guess I need to 
pull the pan, unless I can work the plug out the oil tube hole (vanagon oil 
pan).
