Bob, The oil pump (at least on my 1991 turbo block) has a
tiny hole on the chain side that continuously sprays a stream of oil on the
chain - so no problem with the chain when plugging the injector oil pump
hole

I just tapped the outlet passage of the housing and put in a set
screw. Easy to remove if I find out later that the oil pump chain or some
other vital part gets its oil from the injector drive. Anybody know if I
have screwed up here? It sounds like that is about what Tracy does.

Guys, there is a device/plug made just for plugging passages. The file
I have attached shows a 1/4" version but many others are available.

Tracy blocks the small oil feed
passage between the front housing and the front cover which
completely blocks oil to the metering pump and shaft............As I recall he
inserted a piece of rod into the oil passage
in the front housing with just enough protruding to bottom out in the
front cover.........Removing the metering
pump and drive gear /shaft and adding a blocking plate will save a few
ounces...........
