Removal of PCV piece on valvecover

Hello. I have a receptacle (big round hole) for the stock PCV setup on one of my LS1 valve covers. However, I'm running an LS6 PCV setup and I don't need it. Anyone have any suggestions on what to use to plug it?

Thanks
Ben

Or run a 3/8 hose from one valve cover to the other.

If you are talking about the large hole with the grommet in it (driv. side rear, I believe),
you can plug it with GM part # 12568011
