Im not using any EGR oor Emission stuff so im just wondering what everyone used to block off on the Header and on Mid pipe Tube (used to connect to the Air Tube). And i dont really wana weld either of them shut just incase i ever need to use anyting of it again. Any ideas or pics would be great so i have any idea what your talking about.

I took a piece of hose and clamped it to the x-pipe inlet and then clamped a brass plug about 4 inches away from that. I don't know on the EGR. I would like to know myself.

I used a penny to cap off the header, but you're going to have to cut the EGR tube to get one of the fittings off, then stick a penny in it and tighten it back down.
