MOP Block off Plate

Does anyone have a schematic of the block off plate. I would really apreciate it if someone with a spare MOP could measure out the holes and cut out. It's really hard for me to do the plates elsewhere and not have my car. And can you leave the MOP lines hanging for a bit untill i can get a new gasket for my Intake Manifold.

Any Help would be Appreciated

Thanks,
Brendan

Why don't you just trace the gasket?

There is no 'schematic.' Remove the two bolts holding the pump in place, take the pump out of the motor housing, place the pump on whatever you're using to make the block-off plate (used a 1/4" aluminum sheet myself) and trace it, including the holes for the bolts.

What do you mean by, 'do the plates elsewhere'?

Don't leave the lines hanging, unless you want to have four little vacuum leaks...

Why do you need a new gasket? Unless your current one is damaged you don't need to replace that gasket every time you pull the manifolds.
