Firstly I'm not a plumber so apologies in advanced.

I've got a waste pipe that goes through some cupboards in my kitchen. There's a hot water pipe above it, so I guess it's for a dishwasher or something, but we haven't got anything connected to it.
There's never been anything plugged in, but it's started leaking water if the washing machine is on or if the sink is draining. Think it's not draining quickly enough.

Anyway, I bought a mcalpine 1.5" T23U blanking end. Basically it's only got a screw on one side but not the other. I can either screw it onto the pipe, but then can't screw the blanking end into it. Or I can screw the blanking end into it, but then I can't screw it into the pipe.

Does that make sense?
Basically it would be perfect if the screw bit was double sided. Does anyone know what I can buy? Thanks
 
If you can see, this side doesn't have a screw bit
