The plugs are pressed in place, or actually just tapped in evenly. To remove them all you need is a little hole in it, somewhere just off center, so you can get a tool tip in there an pull it out. I use a very small chisel; drilling leaves metal chips (few but not good) in the water jacket.

Clean out the hole and tap in a new plug.

Maybe some little sealant on the inside, although I don't know what to recommend.
