If I have to pull a motor or winder off a body and I've left the cap somewhere
else, I usually just put some 3M Photo Opaque or electrical tape over the
socket. I usually keep a strip of the tape on the top of the winder/motor, or
even better, on the bottom plate of my cameras. You'd be surprised how often
you can use a little bit of tape here and there when you're out in the field.

Subject: Re: [OM] OM-1 Motor Drive Socket Cap Give-Away Contest
I suspect that if you opened your contest up to those who were looking for a
spare you would have been deluged with requests. I think most listees probably
have managed to at least track down the one(s) they need for their existing
camera bodies and are just looking for spares.
