Steve you can fabricate one out of steel or stainless, use a gasket as a guide.

DOH! I never even thought of that!

Not that those cars are particularly common in wrecking yards anymore, but I actually took the rear disc brakes off of one a couple of years ago in a local yard and didn't even consider the fact that there was a blockoff plate!

As far as making one, I've started with one for a Ford. The Ford plate is longer than needed for an Olds, so I just drilled a new lower bolt hole. I didn't even bother to trim the plate to length, but you can do that if you want.
