Hey all. I’ve got a 5/8” hole in the RO/DI storage container for a mixing station I picked up that sits under the water feed shutoff valve. Having a time trying to figure out the best way to get it plugged up.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Can’t find a bulkhead with cap. Compression seals all have stainless which I’m worried about leaching eventually. There’s got to be an appropriate solution that I’m missing.

Thank you.
 
Some type of compression fitting would be better, but what about a rubber grommet or silicone plug?
