Default Searched... no luck, question about plugging intake for EGR removal

Well my EGR started to leak where it attaches to the intake manifold so i decided just to remove it. I ordered the block offs from Speed Inc along with the intake plug but its just a cap and am not sure hows its going to secure. I can figure out how to remove the few bolts to get the system out and bolt up my block offs but am unsure what to do to plug the intake. Thanks

Don't know what that plug looks like, but you can get a 1 3/8" expansion plug from Autozone that'll seal it.

Most people use a 1 3/8 rubber frost plug,(available at any parts store) it fits snugly into the hole then you tighten the nut and it expands for an airtight fit.
