The small valve you show as”block valve” is the block drain valve and has nothing to do with the heater.

Now, I'm confused too.
See attached. Seems that the picture in the article is the one from the top of the heater.
However.....the valve on the block is a pretty pitiful thing also. Really narrow. Seems that one might have to look at all of them......

Actually, I’ve just realized that the link I sent out is for the valve on the block…so, I’ll keep searching for the piece which deals with the heater mounted valve.

Pocket that it sits in is 5/8 diameter and has three standoffs to center the stopper in the hole. The stopper can move only 1/4 in and out so it stays in the pocket. The available space for water flow is 0.39 inches compared to 0.44 inches for the 3/8 inch internal diameter tubes on the valve. That is about a 25% reduction in flow assuming no pressure change.
