Mine measure 48mm though I don't think they are welsh plugs (though I havent had to install welsh plugs for about 20 years so probably have forgot what they look like 🤪) mine look more the shape of a bottle top , a disk with turned up edges sorta shape, welsh plugs are just a domed sisk as I recall, why don't ya just measure the size of the hole and get something to suit?
I dream of a day when a chicken can cross a road without being asked for it's motive!

I used to collect the black caps off Rexona anti perspirant/deodorant spray cans as they were a perfect fit, held in place with a hose clamp.

Made the car handle better too.....
