I would avoid anything that looks like a "sacrificial mold" or a filler.
That doesn't make sense, as drilling it out with a drill press sure isn't anywhere near as precise as machining.

Also, I watched the video and am confused on what is going on here. I didn't see a single mother or child around in the video, so what was the ATF even doing there?
