do you mean block up the pipe as it comes out of the fuel tank or take the canister off and block it up there?

I wouldn't block the pipes. They don't put stuff like this on for a laugh.
Your fuel tank needs to be ventilated to allow for expansion and contraction of its contents. If you remove it and block it up then you might just find your fuel tank will pop, the lines could pop off or it could collapse in on itself depending on what way the temperature sways.
