Dryer vent plug recommendation

I need to plug an unused dryer vent from the inside. Converted to a ventless heat pump dryer and not using the vent anymore, but want to keep it in place in case I or the next owner decide to switch back to a vented dryer. I've temporarily stuffed a shirt inside it, but that's not a great seal. Are the dryer plugs sold online worth it? Some have a rubber gasket, others don't. Would I be better off wrapping aluminum foil around it with a clamp to hold it in place? https://preview.redd.it/p18rr96c8mve1.png?width=1500&format=png&auto=webp&s=24e35b15d0017f818aa9592fb73596773d480eb3 submitted by /u/chfp [link] [comments]
