Since the 320 is not pressurized, there would be no need to fool with equalization. The boot is a flexible rubber item which secures to the rod with a tie wrap and to the fuse with a ring and a few screws or bolts (depending on detail). It should have no significant effect on flap motion and would effectively plug the hole. It should also be cheap.
