While your rubber plug will work and probably still be there when you're done with the vehicle(I've used 'em myself at times), keep in mind that the metal cup plugs, while you say they "aren't a very good system for sealing something" are out there by the millions, doing their job. So they must not be all bad! I've replaced dozens of 'em with no trouble. Properly installed, they won't leak until they rust out...and if ya put one new one in it's a sure bet that it'll most likely outlast all the rest of the original ones. An old soft plug laying in the water jacket isn't gonna prevent antifreeze from reaching the new one- that stuff can get through VERY small places!
