Default Replacing the front coolant bleeder valve screw

Hi, first time post.

I'm looking to find a replacement for the bleeder valve for the coolant, part number 19516-PC1-000. I need a new one because a few days ago I ended up burping my cooling system to make sure there were no air bubbles after adding some coolant. It's been running good up until this morning. I found out that I lost the front bleeder valve one my way back home, I most likely didn't tighten it enough, and most likely lost all coolant along with it. I've been doing some research for the past hour and have found almost nothing about a decent replacement part. They look similar to the brake bleeder valve, but I'm not sure if using it would be recommended. My current options are: 1) Order the part from my nearest Honda dealership for $20, 2) order from an online source ( I'm thinking MajesticHonda since I also need a new cabin filter and intake filter, and they are a whole lot cheaper), or 3) try using on of the brake bleeder valve screws.

Any help would be appreciated.

It's the same thread size (M10x1.25mm) as the brake bleeder and it does fit but the seat is slightly different so I would not recommend using it.
Just order the correct one online and make sure you bleed your coolant system properly and make sure all the air is out before you drive it again.
