I have meisere electric pump that had come two types of ends one was a plug and the other a nipple. I used the plugs but, you can just loop a piece of hose if you want.

This is on an LT1, but I took the nipples out and took the waterpump to an automotive parts store to find the right size freeze plug. The nipples come out with a bit of twisting and pulling.

I also used some heavy thick rubber "caps" and some hose clamps. Been working for roughly 900 miles...lol. I guess either is fine, looped or blocked. Most loops look like their kinked anyways?
