the easiest thing would be to mold it :D

I personally would built it out of wood or cardboard to mold off of...

I like your idea... that would be the simplest way I think... no messing with molds or plugs at all.
But how do you mean the pipe part?

was going to get started today but its freaking snowing outside right now But the way I was going to do is was just fill the section with foam, then pop the foam out and add the section for the tube one there, then fix my flange for the lip side. Now what type of foam could I get for this project and where is the best places to look in the states?
