Default Bootyfab a slip yoke plug...

So I found a Jeep for my buddy. Rear driveshaft is bad though and my truck is down at the moment. So I was thinking about just pulling the RDS and driving it home in front wheel drive.

Any ideas how to plug up that transfer case cone on a 231 to get it home? It can leak a little and we can just refill it as we go, but what's the best way?

Ive seen people use a cut off coke bottle on the trail, but they also sell a plug for it pretty cheap online.
