A magnetic plug won't help ya with this one as the filings are probably
aluminum (which is what the case is made of) are therefore non-magnetic.  The
filings that are inside the motor will just sink to the bottom of the water
jacket on that side of the head and really shouldn't be a problem (you should
see the amount of crap that accumulates there!)
