EXTRA COOLANT LINE

I have a 1999 f350 with 6.8. It was converted to run on CNG and there is a coolant line teed into the upper expansion tank line over to the high pressure CNG regulator and then to the the upper intake manifold in front of the thermostat housing. It looks like this tapping was part of the factory intake manifold. I wanna get rid of the CNG...can I just plug this with a brass plug?

Yeah, just plug it off. That line is to keep ice from forming when the CNG passes through.
