Cheap and safer to replace old plastic peacock plug
With the age of our cars, it’s probably safer to, and cheap, to replace the plastic peacock entirely. Years of heat cycles will have caused embrittlement the plastic. Worst thing in the world is for this to break in the hole.
Check out post #17 in the thread below. Fellow forum member GD gave details of a $3 replacement part.

I ordered a set of assorted O-Rings, if the plastic is brittle I will replace it as well. Thanks for the link. More Information for DORMAN 61138 (rockauto.com)
