The last time I looked, the vacuum rack is fed from......ONE.....place. Why not just cap off the one nipple that feeds vacuum to the rack? We're talking about a 3.5mm piece of hose plugged at one end and put on the ONE nipple that feeds the vacuum rack.
Or just buy some aluminum and cutout your own *blockoff* plates using whatever item your blocking off for a pattern. That and a drill and hacksaw. Gasket paper is less than three bucks at an auto store.
