So i finally got my new setup mostly on, and plugged off the water pipe that runs under the head, but what do I do with this part that comes off the thermostat?

The black pipe there, that would have been the water supply for the stock turbo I think? Is there something special that I need to do to block it off? Or can I just put a bolt in there and worm clamp it down?

Use a bolt and a worm clamp on the black hose to plug it.
Roll/Pinch the nipple and Weld closed.
Remove the nipple on the thermostat housing, tap the housing and install a block-off plug or try welding the housing closed.
Find a non-turbo thermostat housing for a 1G that will not have that nipple to begin with.
