Ive never heard em called timing plugs. What he is referring to in the above pic is a decompression plug. They do need to be swapped out with a billet plug. As you can see in his pic, his is held in with a small screw if you will. The stok plugs, especially on your bike fox are plastic w/ nothing keeping it from blowing out. The aftermarket plugs have a shoulder that the screw fits in and prevents it from popping or blowing out.

on the case on the left hand side, just above the shifter, there is what looks like you could take a large flat head screwdriver and turn. That is a cap that you can twist out and look insind the case and check the position of your timing mark, thats probably what youre talkin about. You can actually use a socket to reach in there and turn that mark to position it to set the timing, before you go in and adjust the valves or retard the cam (stok cam mod).
