sewer pipe question

I've been cleaning the basement. I moved a cabinet and found that my husband has repaired the short sewer pipe that comes out at an angle from the long one (stack?) by sticking a McDonald's cup in it (vintage cup from when they were thicker plastic) after a rooter person had to break off the, I guess it's called a "cleanout plug."

The old plug was on the floor nearby so I've been trying to match it up to replace it. It seems to be between 3" and 3-1/2" and I haven't been able to find one the same size.

I guess there is such a thing as a mechanical plug, or some type of a plug that can be put in as a replacement. Can anyone advise me if this would be suitable and long lasting, and what brand and type I should look for?

Thank you.

Loretta
