ummmm unless you want to pressurize the inside of your motor then you might want to take that off and cap it

JB Weld always works, or you could get a piece of vacumn line and put it on there then stick a bolt in it w/ a wire tie..... be creative.

go to Autozone or Napa and get a rubber cap and put a smaller hose clamp on it... will cost you like $5 at the most...

leave the hose on it that is supposed to go to the valve covere and istead of connecting it to the valve cover, stick a bolt into the end of the hose and hoseclamp it on.
free enough!

Re: intake/intercooler piping (playahwitgame)
update: i went and got a 5/16 x 1" bolt from home depot. since the piping was aluminumand the metal was soft, i didnt even tap it, i just twisted the puppy in with the ratchet, brought it back out, tefloned it all up and screwed it back in. so for my valve cover, should i get those breather filters?

yes get a breather filter and then when you got a buck or two you can always make a home made catch can later.
