Magnetic drain plugs?

I recently changed all my fluids... but I do not recall the exact
sizes for all the drain plugs...

I found that that there's a piece of magnet on the drain plug of
transaxle and rear differential....

Does anyone know if I could simply buy these factory drain plugs
and fit it on the engine oil drain plug and transfer case??

(though I think the drain plug on transfer case is very diff being
much larger than others...)

I've seen it on E-Bay somewhere before.

I cannot say for 100%, but when I removed the transaxle plug, it did not look like it would fit on the oil pan.

I could be wrong, but I just don't remember it being the same size as the oil pan.
