I'm missing a kind of oval shape rubber plug on the upper center firewall in the engine compartment of my 1964 Plymouth Fury. I've looked at ads for several suppliers of plugs but don't see any in that size and shape. Anyone know where I can get one?

Thanks 65 Hemi. That's the one!
 
I am not sure my 65 belvedere 1 ever had one. ???? The one that goes to the cowl area? Steve
 
Yep, It's a way for the area behind the firewall in the bottom of the cowl area to drain and stay clean. Lots of them are missing on the cars I see and it's no big deal. Over the years leaves and dirt will get in there and if it's not cleaned out occasionally it will eventually rust out. If I remember correctly the grommet that fits in the oval space is actually a kind of flapper door. They are available on Ebay too.
 
There are two. The one on the passenger side is a flap. The one in the center is a plug...

The one on the passenger side is a flap to close off hot engine air, but also that allows rain water falling into the louvers at the windshield base to flow out of the heating and venting system in the cowl. That is the one that gets full of leaf crud.
