Default plugging a tapped oil pan?

So yeah, im going from turbo to stock on my y8 and trying to figure out a way to plug the tapped oil pan, without having to get a new oil pan. Any ideas? Ive thought of just a plug, then it has to be heat resistant, etc. etc.

I done my with a high temp hose and just blend the hose and half then use a clamp and clamp it, then plug it to your oil pan and clamp the hose.

I'd trade you if you were a little closer.
