Default Where to buy radiator drain valve

Does anyone know the part number for the radiator drain valve for the OE radiator on a 2004 G35 coupe (I think the 350z uses the same one)? Or possibly anywhere to get one from?

I have ordered one from Raceway Nissan and one from inifnitipartsusa.com and they have both sent me what I think is the wrong one.

I ordered numbers 10 and 11 on this diagram:



I received part no. 21440-5V000 from both dealerships, which looks like the air relief plug from the heater hose.

The plug on the left is what I took off of my car and the one on the right is what I received from the dealerships. I'm not sure if the dealerships are ordering the wrong parts for me or if the part number is listed wrong, but the larger plug does not fit at all.




I have already checked autozone and kragen to see if they had any replacements, but they do not.

^ Sounds like a winner, or possibly your local stealership. I can't imagine the part(s) costing too much locally.
