It's fuckeltoes.

I was leaning towards fuckletoes also, never heard dicksplash although it wouldn't be a surprise, but really any of them would generally be appropriate. You're supposed to get a little creative from time to time.

My favourite one that not so many people have heard is "that's rare as rocking horse shit".
