All good mate, I was thinking the same restricting vacuum causing built up pressure, restriction, etc...
Thanks Matty!
It will just be like your current system. It will pull a vacuum until there is no air left then the pump just continues to free spin until there is a differential again from something like a brake application. So just blanking the engine driven one will just means it will just be at absolute vacuum all the time. It wouldnt be hard to T it into your current system though.

Yeah we were talking about that which is easy to do.
I rung every single wrecker and parts supplier today trying to find the oil feed line and the vac line...zero!!!
Looks like a tight fit running a braided line on the block side of injector pump, very, very tight with the pump and engine mount.
I'll hook it up and see the best route but may be easier to run it on outside of injector pump back into block.
Get the fittings for the block and vac pump like I told you. Then measure from the seat of the fitting in the block to the centre of the fitting in the vac pump. Also measure the distance from the block to the block fitting and the distance from block to vac pump fitting seat. With this info get pirtek to make you a 1/4" tube to these dimensions.

Don't hate Matty but I'm running the oil feed on the outside of the injector pump....lol
The inlet on the vac pump is on the right, little zig zag over the engine mount into a 90 bend to block.
Yes, paranoid AB but I don't like braided line rubbing or severely close to block.
Your obsession with braided hose worries me lol. I wanted you to do it in tube not hose. It would have never rubbed and routed the way I said very neat.
