Post CAT 3116 Water Heater Line Removal


I'm wanting to switch out the water heater in my boat. The current one has coolant lines coming from the engine but I'm replacing it with one which doesn't need the lines. Are the plugs which go into these ports a standard part, or was this some aftermarket setup?

I did see a diagram which shows the bottom port having a plug with part number 9S-4185, but it was a bit confusing because the part shows "threaded" but the picture isn't. https://parts.cat.com/en/mustang/9S-4185
