Default floor pan plug replacement

Looking for something I can use to replace this plug, want something that I can remove easily so when I wash out my floor it can drain there, not a fan of using the normal drain because it drains the sand/mud/ect into my unibody that is plated, looking for ideas on what other people used. tried looking for a 2 3/4 in flanged rubber floor plug, anyone have a link for one if the got one for themselves? thanks


Im talking about the ones that are at the top of the vertical parallel "lines"

First thing that popped into my head was those temporary freeze out plugs. They do come in various sizes. Maybe?

I found a disposal plug that fit in the stock hole really well, easy to pull and drain the floor too. My floor pan does not look like the one in the pic.
