I recently bought an oil catch can for my vehicle listed above Flex Fuel. The intake manifold block off plug it came with doesn’t fit properly and I can hear air being sucked in and it is causing two lean engine codes. I couldn’t find any replacements that are compatible with the aluminum intake manifold. What do you think would be the best option to help the plug seal properly? I was thinking of trying to find a thicker O-ring but I'm not sure if it would seal that way.

I am not sure what you mean by oil catch can? The oil filter adapter? oil cooler? here is how to change them both out in case this is what you meant. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.
