A Jig is nice but I have never seen one in use anywhere I have worked; even the pros use a Socket to drive Core/Freeze plugs in.
They do make generic tools to drive in Core/Freeze Plugs that have a hinging Handel on the. However, they are mostly used for gettin around obstructions to drive the Plug in (I have never useed one so I do not know how well they work).
I like the Old syle Brown Permatex either hardening or none hardening for Freeze Plugs.
Get as much active, flaky rust out of the plug holes as you can. You can use 180 or 120 grit emery paper on the Hole IDs.
Pic of one of the generic tools. Mostly made for use installing the Plugs with the Engine in the Vehicle.
