to cap off that petcock you really should just replace the petcock with a non vacuum one ( they have after market replacements on line)
either that or you will need to find another place to plug that vacuum line into
because gas will not flow through the petcock if the vacuum is disconnected...

but sense you are chucking the entire tank and using another petcock anyway
that vacuum line can be plugged or completely removed just don't leave a vacuum leak it has to be sealed. one way or another, or the bike won't run !
