On Webers, you can buy the plugs and/or the fuel inlet fittings. On Dells if you can't purchase a single fuel fitting, you can cap and clamp one bib on the double.

I went this route in recommendation from Dave @Blackline. I have older Dells with the smaller bolt and the single banjo is NLA ( or was. I think Dellorto Shop UK had some repros made , but they’re $50)

This came up the second time the plug I had on the double banjo was dried and cracked when I did a visual pre-flight. I didn’t want to risk it and lost the “T” and installed the hard line. I was hesitant originally, worried that it might make for a pressure drop on the downstream carb,  but Dave assured me they did it all the time and it’s not a problem. Makes sense since the double banjos are all that’s available for the small bolt banjos  

Like I said, no big deal so far. At some point I plan to cover the crossover with some fiberglass thermosleeve.
