No.
Leave that normally open, pilot air circuit unimpeded.

Blocking just the vacuum source path (the small diameter hose) from the #1 carburetor hose barb fitting, to the air cut valve diaphragm assembly is all you need to do.

Won't make any appreciable difference in the way the engine runs with it disabled. ;)
