Out of curiosity, what do you recommend to plug the hole with?

I just sent this to Mikey a little bit ago...

"Some guys use caulking, some guys use tape.
I use stuff called Electrician's Putty. It's like rubbery clay that never gets hard and never changes shape. Electricians use it everywhere to seal penetrations through exterior walls.
I have a one pound block that I've been using for 20 years.
It's great for all sorts of things.
I used it because all I have to do is pull it out if I ever want to use the winadors for something else. I didn't want to do any permanent damage and duct tape isn't very reliable. It dries out and gets ruined by water.
If not the putty, I'd jam a little wad of paper in the drain and put in a little gob of caulking that I could remove easily, I suppose. "
