Yeah, screw the rubber plug patch job and get the right freeze plug. Those rubber plugs are good as a temporary fix but they do not last.

That will do just fine, just don't over do it when applying the sealer. Any excess that gets scraped off when installing the plug will go right into your cooling system. Those pieces of sealant floating around (if excessive) can mess with your heater core, radiator, water pump, and the thermostat.
