They shouldn't be too hard to find.
They will take quite a lot of current, so check to see your battery can handle that kind of current without overheating.
A typical drone battery will have an even more spectacular effect than those firecrackers of yours, when overheated.
If you let these plugs glow for too long, they will burn out and i'm not sure how well these will like it when you abuse them to ignite such ignition wick on fireworks.
A bare Arduino isn't capable of controlling the glow plug directly, so you do need some external controlling electronics.

There's glow plugs for remote controlled fuel engines.
That can be an expensive route - it is very easy to "burn out" a glow plug - and while they aren't that expensive, they are very expensive compared to other solutions.
AWOL's suggestion of steel wool is likely the cheapest solution. A cheap hiking/backpacking "firestarter" is to carry some steel wool and a 9-volt battery (separate, of course!). If you can extract a length of a single strand from the wool - then wrap it around a matchhead - that works extremely well. Indeed, any fairly fine wire should work ok.
Another solution - though more expensive - is to use standard hobby-grade rocket igniters, such as those by Estes and other model rocket suppliers.
If you need re-usability - then using a length of nichrome wire would be best. This is the same wire as is found in a toaster or a hair dryer. In fact, those are ready sources - so if you find one in the trash, scavenge it for the wire. Alternatively, you can purchase the wire new from various online suppliers and other places.

Glow plugs (from my long ago memory) use low voltage and high current. This will be a problem with a 9v battery.
Yeah - I think you had to use this particular 1.5 volt dry cell (it was about the size of a beer can, with screw terminals on top) that could put out a lot of current.
