Angry head replacement

Does anyone know what size plugs would be used to plug off the extra holes on an 87 300 head,to be used on a 92 truck.Cracked 92 head replaced with 87 head and now have extra holes. Unable to use the smog rail that was on the 87 head because the fittings are cracked. What started out as a simple project is fast becomming a PITA.

I used pipe plugs with thread sealer on a similar application. Its been 2 years and none have worked loose and it is still on the road.

Do you remember what size they were? 3/8? 1/2? 7/16?
