The GT6 block is pretty close to identical to the early TR6 block, and
at least one of my GT6s, as purchased, was equipped with a petcock for
the block drain. It's got to be interchangeable with the plug, since the
one in the daily driver came apart trying to remove it, and I had to
substitute a plug from the parts car.

Cheers.
