Default Water pump cap/block plate

Anyone know if I can just cap off the the fuel pump attachment to the water pump? Going electric fuel pump delivery. I’m assuming I can put some crank case oil in it then cap it with a plate.

Yes you can. I would use gear oil, like Bravo1 gear lube. There are roller bearings in there pressed onto the pump shaft.
