[OS X TeX] Plain TeX question

I would like to use TeX to parse some files, e.g.
%%% example
\long\def\foo#1#2#3#4#5{%
\write1{#3}%
}
\openout1=dest.tex
\input source.tex
\immediate\closeout1
\bye
%%% end example
Unfortunately TeX expands all macros contained in #3, #5, #4 before
writing them.
How could I prevent expanding macros in "write" ?
thanks for any help
Eric
