As above, this is correct, but don't remove the metal pipe until you swap your inlet manifold as I said in my last post or you will have an epic boost leak
Edit:- and I wouldn't use silicone, it needs to be heat resistant epoxy stuff if you can't weld it, also if it was to open again its after the turbo so just a massive exhaust leak and a cabin full of coal, you would know about it!!
Another alternative is to make a metal plate the same size as the bottom of the valve and bolt it on in place of the valve with some instant gasket
