Default 1.6 CVH Core plugs

Started the bottom end rebuild today. Got the crank in then went to fit the new core plugs sourced from Burtons and they don't fit! They seem to be too small Whats gone wrong? Burtons only list one type of plugs for the CVH and these are the one's I have which don't fit. Any ideas where its gone wrong?

Cheers

Here's a couple of pics to better illustrate what I mean.
On the CVH block there are 4 core plugs, correct? 3 in the side and one larger one on the end. Well in my pack there are 10 small (too small) plugs and 1 large plug :S



This aint right

As you say obviously a burton mistake, try ford, or take one to any half decent engine machine shop, they will have them by the bucket load.
