The Replacement EZ Lube Drive-In Grease Cap # 21-41-1 that you referenced has an overall height of 1-3/8". From the top of the grease cap to the bottom edge of the lip that stops it on your hub is measures 1" tall.

If you don't already have the rubber plugs for an EZ lube grease cap then we have the part # RG04-010 which comes with 2 of them.

I have attached a picture showing the dimensions that I referenced in my answer.
