2018 Oil Pan Drain Plug

Has anyone had difficulty finding 2018 GT (Non PP) replacement oil pan plugs? (the yellow plastic one with the twist off feature - not the 3/8 in slotted hole) Even my local dealer couldn't find the correct part number. The GT350 one I believe doesn't work on this model.

Just did my first 2018 GT oil change last week and I ordered two spare plastic drain plugs at the dealer. They were $3.33 each. They do come out and go back in with minimal turning but they must work as the GT 350 has the same design and more vibration. Also the factory original oil filter was at least 1 inch shorter than the replacement FL-500 Motorcraft unit. Not sure why but perhaps they needed extra clearance when installing the motor at Flat Rock. At 220 miles, the original oil was black and the catch pan had some metallic grit in the bottom not captured by the original oil filter. Cheap insurance on all my new cars.
