Default going from turbo back to stock

hello, im going back to stock from my greddy kit. There is a fitting right next to the oil filter where a silver hose connected to. The silver hose connected to the turbo and i believe is a "oil return hose"?. Anyone know what size cap fitting i will need to get to plug this hole?
Thanks

I don't know about anybody else's experiences, but JB Weld wouldn't work for my buddies oil pan in his SRT 4. The clamp sound like a more effective procedure.

Thats what my friend did with his. If this is just temporary, I would go that route. If you are taking the kit off for good, I would go ahead and just buy a new oil pan.

It wokred fine for me. I tapped my own hole in the oil pan to go turbo and I used JB Weld to seal it. I gunked that **** on there.
