Block off heater matrix from engine?

Afternoon all,

I'm well into my (unplanned) rebuild of my 200TDi engine - I'm planning on replacing the water pump, radiator and hopefully rebuild the heater matrix.

Is there a way to block off the heater matrix from the engine? I'd prefer to get the engine sorted and rebuild the heater later.

The rubber heater pipes from the engine are next to each other at the back of the cylinder head, so remove one and fold it back onto the other pipe stub, not pretty but will do the job.
