Default Radiator Hole...

I bought a new radiator off euro car parts and after fitting, noticed there's a threaded hole about 1/2 inch on the right side, but it didn't come with anything to block it off. My old radiator didn't have one.

Does anyone know where i can get proper blanking plug for it? I've been to tool station and have a temporary one atm. But it won't last long as it's not a tight fit.

Nope. Is there any difference in location between mk1 and mk2? Mine is mk2.

The was nothing there on my old radiator. Just this new one has the hole just underneath the radiator hose (top right).

In that case find a sump blanking plug of the correct size put some silicone sealant around the thread & try that mate.
