Stick a screw in the pipe and a piece of broom handle in where the dump valve is.

Thats what I would do if I didnt have the correct blanking plug.

Either buy a bit of pipe to replace that section totally, or put an inch of the pipe back onto the t-piece, then put a screw in the end.

If it has a T piece coming off the vaccum pipe which links the pipe to the dump valve, just remove the T piece and put it back on without it and it'll just go through the bulkhead or whatever like it usually does and there won't even be anything that needs blocking off


Or just get a screw and put it into the vaccum pipe!
