These are not everyday-vocabulary answers: none meets the top-25,000 frequency cutoff, even though HUBCAP and TEACUP are familiar. For 6-letter words with C as the 4th letter and P as the 6th letter, separate cap endings such as ENDCAP and SKYCAP from cup endings such as EGGCUP and EYECUP.
The pattern is a clue, not a rule that every answer uses the same ending before P. Dictionary coverage varies, so check your game's word list before relying on a less familiar entry.
