Hey Tom.. imagine someone opens a brake line and has to leave it open for a while.. maybe they need to take the caliper somewhere.. or whatever.. now the line is drip drip dripping all day long.
How about a little plug to stop the drip?
C'mon.. we've all faced this with one car or another. I stuck a pencil in there once. That did not end well

I'm sure I could print some plug in TPU (rubbery plastic), but a good set of silicon plugs might do the trick if I'm following your idea....
These.. combined with a bag full of assorted plastic plugs from a generous member years ago and I am one step closer to complete 951 hole plugging coverage

I just used some rubber vacuum caps. They're easy to find at your local auto parts store.

I've used golf tees before. Not ideal but they work.
