Well, I'm wrote a response, but it didn’t show up.

On my 1600 I used a blank-off plate from, I think, a Chevy. Picked it up @ a local parts house. Take your fuel pump gasket & they can match it.

Since I used the factory studs, I had to add short spacers between the plate & nuts. If I had to do it again, I’d remove the studs & go with bolts.

Yep, a Chevy one will work, but I also suggest a thick gasket or my favorite Toyota sealant. Before the Toyota sealant mine would tend to weep.
