Pete These are cylinder drain cocks for 5" engines. Look around in the states. I'm sure you will find a good one. I use "Holzapfel" Winterthur Switzerland part N° 10161 They are very superior to the others. Another solution is DJB needle valve in the boiler backhead and run a length of 3mm copper tube down under the engine A La Pearce. This way you do not burn your fingers with hot water. Can supply photos of the installation of both . (DJB is here the cheapest as well)
