Are you just wanting to plug the hole on the right side of the master cylinder that would be used for the manual washer hoses?

I doubt your body plug kit included the proper size plug for this hole, if it did, it installs from the engine side of the firewall. It's a depressed center plastic plug. Typically most plug kits don't have the correct one and it has to be purchased separately.

Now with that being said, it's possible the the newer more expensive kits, like DMT's, might include the proper size plug.....I'm not certain.

The 1 & 3/8" plug for the manual washer bottle is not included in the kits that we put together.  As Alan stated, I do not know of anyone putting that plug in the kits.  It is not a common size and is not readily available.  The grommet for the manual washer bottle is available, but the recessed plug takes some digging for one with the correct markings.

That's what I thought: I had to really dig to find two used ones for my last two cars.
