Don't trust oil hose anymore

After going through two new leaking block-to-oil-sensor hoses, I don't care
to play anymore Russian Roulette with my engine. (This is the little hose,
not the big oil cooler hose.) Does anyone know what I could use to plug or
cap the outlet on the block?

An old time mechanic once told me that oil gauges/idiot-lights actually
destroy more engines than they save. The sensors are very often the source
of catastrophic oil leaks!
