My oil pan was tapped and has the fitting for a supercharger oil line. Only problem is I dont have a blower. Whats the best way to plug it?

I tried unscrewing it buy it seems like there is a nut on the inside of the pan holding the fitting in.

leave the fitting in there and just put a rubber cap on it with a hose clamp.

Not to sound rude but that is kind of ghetto you might just want to plug the hole with the proper plug [patriot]
