C&C seemed to use different parts on the same boats. My 1982 32 has Groco seacocks with the rubber plugs. My friends 1981 has a seacock with a tapered bronze plug, presumably from that years low cost supplier. As Rick points out, a seacock is seacock.

You can buy a bronze one made by Groco or marlon made by Forespar. There are other manufacturers as well. Baically you need to know either the thread size on the thru hull, or the size of the hose connected to the seacock. When I redid the engine on my 38 I wanted to change the orientation of the hose barb on the seacock. The bronze thru hull had straight threads for a ¾" thru hull, so I bought the corresponding ¾" Groco seacock, and a 90 degree bronze hose barb for straight thread to ¾" hose. As someone has already pointed out, hose barbs come with either a straight thread connection, or a tapered pipe thread, and it is not a good idea to put tapered thread into the straight thread of a seacock. My 38, with a 36hp diesel, used a ¾" hose for cooling water intake. Your engine might use a larger hose depending on manufacturer and size of the engine.
