Removing standby vacuum system

[737jenkins]

I’m in the process of upgrading the panel and removing the vacuum system in my 1968 180. It has the Precise flight standby system installed, which draws it’s vacuum from a tap into the manifold. Actually, I’m just standing around watching skilled mechanics do it, but hey, I was there, right?

Any thoughts on how to address the hole in the manifold pipe left after removing the Precise Flight Standby system? Just curious...thanks.
