Can you unscrew it from the head? If so get a plug the same thread from the hardware or auto parts store.

no its kind of weird it has a bolt thru it that is a smaller diameter than the hole being plugged

Can you email me a picture of it? The description makes me think of an EGR fitting but we do not want that to be the case.
