I usually take really big bolts and plug the hole. Then use a hose clamp to hold it in place

i ended up putting a little hallow pipe in the rubber tube, and then screwed on a metal cap,and put a clamp around the outside of the rubber tube for an air tight seal........... works well for now

I've seen a few jdm front clips that have plastic bottle caps shoved in the old bov hoses held in place by hose clamps lol. But a better way to do it would be to have a shop that can weld aluminum cap off the intercooler's bov outlet.
