Blocking EGR Valve?

I recall someone mentioning blocking off the EGR valve in a response to one
of my pinging posts. Well now that everything seems to be peachy, I need
something else to keep me from getting bored lol. When I did the intake
gaskets I saw the EGR tube ran to a place on the exh manifold. Assuming
this is like any older engine I've worked on, this just runs some exhaust
through the intake to warm it up a tad faster right? I've got an exhaust
tick, I have to assume the seal didn't survive the R&R. I'm in a
non-emissions area so this should be fine. Is this just a manner of taking
the tube off between the manifolds or is it more involved than that?
Someone mentioned a cheap kit from dealers that does this as well? Any part
numbers or should I just ask for the EGR block off kit? How cheap is cheap?
  Why is the sky blue? Where's Waldo? Lol. Thanks guys,
