WW2 Russian 50mm Mortars

Hi, are the large bakelite plugs on these improvised grenades just standard WW2 "Shipping or transport Plugs"? They look like they could be to me.

If so.... how many different shaped transport plugs did the Russians make for the 50mm mortars? (only during WW2)

Any photos someone has, or a link to "all" the different shaped 50mm mortar plugs?

I think it looks like there are at least 4 different ones in these photos....


Is this correct? are these just standard transport plugs?
