As a rather belated follow up I eventually bought some stainless steel plugs from Core Plugs International (coreplugs.co.uk) who can also supply some sizes in brass.
A complete set of 2 large and 5 small cost a total of £15.08 including VAT and carriage. A bit dearer than mild steel but if it avoids future problems then it's well worth it.
Out of interest they recommend using Hylosil instant gasket (RTV Silicone) when fitting them but I actually used Hylomar because it's what I had.
