Presumably I should cap it, but as you can see from this photo it's
not a neat end:

The outside diameter is about 7cm.

There are flexible rubber caps for sale, e.g.

but I doubt it could be attached securely. Would a piece of some kind

considered unprofessional.

You are both correct.

For the kewpie doll you have to say which one to put in the pipe
