NO! Do not remove it..it is there for a reason and that is to vent blow by gasses from the block. Besides if you do there will be a big gaping hole in the back of your motor. Even if you plug it up you will start leaking oil from every seal since you will have no way to vent the pressure from the pistons comming down the cylinder.
