Default Plugging up oil pan bung

I am taking my turbo off for a little while and need to somehow plug up the bung on my oil pan. Think I can use some kind of cap with success?

when I had my kit off to get the turbo rebuilt, I connected the oil feed line to the return line with a coulple adapters from home depot.

I did it with a bolt, the threaded part could slide inside the bung but the shank was a tight fit. I just gave it a smack with a hammer to drive the shank of the bolt part way into the bore. Drove it for thousands of miles that way.
