1963 wiper motor rebuild

[Ellobo53]

My wiper motor is leaking power steering Fluid into the driver side cabin floor, I am going to send the wiper motor to get rebuild. I want to keep driving the car while the wiper motor gets rebuild. I am planning on plugging the hydraulic line coming out of the steering gear box and out of the power steering reservoir. Does anyone know if this will cause any problems? Thank you in advance for your advice and input.

It should not cause any issues, but be careful to use a plug with the proper tread pitch. I don't think a standard pipe plug is correct.
