if no coolant is going to it, no need to block it off.

You should really use the coolant ports if you have them. The center section bearings will last a lot longer if you do, so you're throwing away free protection by not using coolant lines.

Can't you just tee off an existing coolant line? Shouldn't be too hard and pretty cheap.
