Re: 4.0 L Core/Freeze Plugs
 

well blow me - never knew you got kits for that. I've only ever used a
mallet on an old socket to seat them, and a podger to remove 'em.

Since, "podger" seems to be a british term, this is the sort of thing ( the
non spanner end is the podger bit )

I have never seen anything like it....

We use an ice pick/awl or a center punch with a hammer.

Spud Wrench
http://www.rastalltool.com/frame_middle/spud.asp

Although there are a few other names and not all
"spud wrenches" are that type.

Commonly used for high-iron/aligning bolt holes in beams and girders
where fingers dare not tread.
