Weld it closed would be preferred or even JB Weld it. But a bolt and nut like Blur said would work too if you seal it. Maybe a rubber backed washer of some type bolted down over the hole? Duct tape is preferred over electrical tape if you are on a budget.

I would have used duct tape, but dare I say, I couldn't find my roll. 
Yeah you can lift them that way. Make sure the rear suspension is loaded when you're doing it, as in tires on blocks, or jackstands under axle. This will give you an idea of where your TQ arm will be 99% of the time. Mine was pretty damn close to it, and when I'd jack the car up and unload the suspension, the tq arm would actually hit the exhaust. This didn't do any damage to either part, and you could even dent the exhaust right there if you wanted to.
You have to remember that for the point where the pipe goes under the TQ arm to actually hit the TQ arm, the rear tires would have to go WAY far down. Since it pivots on the transmission, the rear would have to drop like 6" for that section of TQ arm above the pipe to drop 1".
